- We have a long and proud history of open government leadership, going back to our 1962 ombudsman legislation, a very significant 1980 report on Open Government which resulted in our OIA in 1982. Next major steps this century acknowledge the impact of the Internet and the opportunities to make public data available online and to work closely with citizens. Replaced by Ombudsmen Act 1972
