I'm happy to support this amendment, which updates the Bill’s overview to reflect the Government amendment agreed at Stage 2, which brings the ombudsman under the Welsh language standards.

I'd like to put on record my thanks to the Member in charge for the detailed work that he and the Assembly team supporting him have done in collaboration with the Government to improve this Bill. Between Stages 2 and 3, Llyr Gruffydd has tabled over 250 amendments, aiming to ensure that this Bill will effectively achieve its objectives and will be good law if it is agreed by the National Assembly. I hope Members will support this last amendment today and support the Bill’s progress.
