Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Act (including any effects on those provisions):
(1)The Ombudsman may investigate a complaint about a matter to which this Part applies if the complaint has been—

(b)duly referred to the Ombudsman, and
in the case of a complaint which relates to an independent palliative care provider, the condition in subsection (2) is met.
(2)The condition is that the independent palliative care provider has received public funding, within the three years before the date of the action to which the investigation relates, in respect of a palliative care service that it provides in Wales.
(3)In subsection (2) “public funding” means funding from—
(a)the Welsh Ministers,

(c)an NHS Trust, or
(d)a county council or county borough council in Wales.
(4)A complaint is “duly made” to the Ombudsman if (but only if)—
(a)it is made by a person who is entitled under section 47 to make a complaint to the Ombudsman,
(b)before the complaint is made—
(i)the matter to which it relates has been brought, by or on behalf of the person affected, to the notice of the provider to whom it relates, and
(ii)the provider has been given a reasonable opportunity to investigate the matter and to respond, and
(c)the requirements of section 48(1) are met in respect of it.

(6)It is for the Ombudsman to determine whether the requirements of subsection (1) have been met in respect of a complaint.
(7)Where the Ombudsman determines that the requirements of subsection (1) have not been met in respect of a complaint because the requirements of subsection (4)(b), section 48(1) or section 49(1)(b), (c) or (d) have not been met in respect of that complaint, the Ombudsman may nonetheless investigate the complaint if—
(a)it relates to a matter to which this Part applies, and
(b)the Ombudsman thinks it reasonable to do so.
(8)It is for the Ombudsman to decide whether to begin, continue or discontinue an investigation (but see section 48(5)(a) for a restriction on the power to begin an investigation under subsection (1)(a)).
(9)The Ombudsman may take any action which the Ombudsman thinks may assist in making a decision under subsection (8).
