Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

These regulations add joint planning boards and their subsidiaries (under the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016) to the list of agencies covered by the Ombudsman Act 1972, and include transitional savings preserving the pre-amendment Ombudsman Act for certain continuing matters and for complaints made on or before 25 August 2021. The practical effect is that those planning entities become subject to ombudsman oversight and related compliance duties, while certain earlier complaints stay governed by the previous legal regime.
