PhDiva links to this story about a new complaints bureau in the Antiquities Ministry. See http://english.ahram.org.eg/~/NewsContent/9/40/9711/Heritage/Ancient-Egypt/New-Egyptian-era,-new-complaints-section-in-antiqu.aspx
While this sounds good in theory, the devil is in the details and the possibility that this will just be used to identify trouble makers cannot be discounted. Also, what about the allegations of corruption already made against Minister Hawass? Will these really be investigated or will they be just swept under the rug?
