| Annotation | An Act to establish and make provision about the office of Commissioner for Older People in Wales; and to make provision about the functions of the Commissioner for Older People in Wales. The Commissioner for Older People (Wales) Bill received the Royal Assent on 25 July 2006. The Act sets out a framework under which the National Assembly for Wales is able to introduce secondary legislation making detailed provision as to the appointment, staffing, financing and functions of the Commissioner. It is proposed that the secondary legislation will comprise two sets of Regulations: one set dealing with arrangements for the appointment and term of office of the Commissioner; and the other set dealing with the administrative and wider strategic functions of the Commissioner. Explanatory notes have been produced to assist in the understanding of this Act and are available separately (0105630063). It is intended that the first ever Commissioner for Older People in Wales will be appointed during 2007. (KJ/RH). |
