I also will be supporting these amendments today, as I will with all of the amendments tabled in the name of Suzy Davies. These amendments provide greater clarity to the provisions in the Bill around the appointment of the ombudsman or an acting ombudsman, ensuring that the Assembly determines the terms of appointment. This is a sensible approach to appoint to this important independent role.
