areas. For this purpose I will work on three successive steps, the first
                  one will be devoted to the description per se of the situation where the
                  two organisms carry out their mission in parallel and of their history. In
                  the second the focus will made on the idiosyncrasies of the functioning
                  of a national institution of mediation and in the third and last step I
                  will through general comments of the results achieved briefly mention
                  the difficulties that hinder the fulfilment of satisfactory performance.
                  Please allow me to introduce you a general discourse. Starting from
                  some aspects of the prevailing situation in Morocco which is amongst
                  the countries where the two entities coexist.  The Moroccan constitution
                  has officially stipulated the existence of two complementary advisory
                  institutions  devoted  to  the  protection  of  rights  we  are  therefore  in
                  front of two different entities in charge of on one hand rights related
                  to  human  dignity  and  moral  and  physical  integrity  of  citizens  thus
                  having a lot spectrum and on the other hand to their rights in their
                  quasi daily rapport with the executive bodies and thus intervening in
                  a restricted domain. The two institutions are independent of the three
                  traditions of powers and have a real independence concerning such
                  powers giving that their heads are directly appointed by the supreme
                  authority of the state in order to escape any sort of foreign influence
                  or pressure which is harmful to their independence.
                  The motives that have motivated the creation of somehow different,   3 rd  INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON OMBUDSMAN INSTITUTIONS
                  it is in fact for political motives in order to turn the page of default
                  unfortunate practices that the council of human rights has seen the
                  date  towards  the  end  of  the  last  century  and  had  successively  two
                  appellations advisory council and about five ago national council. In fact
                  the conservations that have proceeded the adoption of the mediation
                  at the beginning of this century bear an administrative character in
                  order  to  precisely  protect  the  citizens  against  the  administrative
                  decisions and acts that may cause harm to the legitimate rights and
                  interests. First of all the mediator is close through his interventions to
                  the role of the administrative courts yet failing to have a binding power
                  of  its  decisions  and  of  repressive  legislation.  He  may  not  pretend
                  to  replace  the  justice.  In  addition  to  what  proceeds  a  difference
                  concerning the organizational structure of each of the two advisory
                  bodies the mediator precise in person or his institution without having
                  any deliberative instance in the form of a council or assembly while
