Introduction
1.These explanatory notes relate to the Public Services Ombudsman (Wales) Act 2019 which was passed by the National Assembly for Wales on 20 March 2019 and received Royal Assent on 22 May 2019. They have been prepared by the Welsh Government on behalf of Llyr Gruffydd AM, the Member in Charge of the Act, to assist the reader of the Act; they do not form part of the Act.
2.These explanatory notes need to be read in conjunction with the Act. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section or part of a section does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
