Summary: Abstract: The �public servants� category includes all administrative authorities serving the state, community and general interest and those protecting the rights and freedoms of all people living in Colombia, primarily regarding individuals� fundamental, inherent and inalienable rights (human and legal), recognised by constitutional primacy. Respect for dignity and other human rights, in line with the overriding public interest, is one of the Republic of Colombia�s fundamental principles which requires the exercise of administrative functions to abide by the principles of Article 209 of the Charter for such rights to become effective. Government must serve all citizens and, therefore, administrative officers must serve them, recognise their rights and diligently, timely, equitably, impartially and effectively protect them, respecting due process, listening to them and ensuring their protection, motivating their decisions and repairing all damage which their wrongful acts or omissions have caused them.
