eligible for re-appointment.3Her Majesty may relieve a person of office as the Ombudsman—aat the Ombudsman's request, orbon Her Majesty being satisfied that the person is incapable for medical reasons

acting Ombudsman holds office in accordance with the terms of the acting Ombudsman's appointment, subject to sub-paragraph (6) (and paragraph 2, as applied by sub-paragraph (7)).6An acting Ombudsman must not hold office after—athe appointment of a person as the Ombudsman, orbif sooner, the end of the period of two years starting with the date on which the vacancy arose.7While an acting Ombudsman holds office, the acting Ombudsman is to be regarded (except for the purposes of paragraphs 1, 3, 6 to 10 and this paragraph) as the Ombudsman.<Emphasis>Further provision: appointment</Emphasis>5The Assembly must determine the terms that apply to an appointment made under paragraph 1 or paragraph 4(1).<Emphasis>Disqualification</Emphasis>61A person is disqualified from being the Ombudsman or an

of a provider which is not an individual or the affairs of such a provider.3The appointment of a person as the Ombudsman or an acting Ombudsman is not valid if the person is disqualified under sub-paragraph (1).4If a person who has been appointed as the Ombudsman or an acting Ombudsman becomes disqualified under sub-paragraph (1), the person ceases to hold office on becoming so disqualified.5But the validity of anything done by a person appointed as the Ombudsman or an acting Ombudsman is not affected by the fact that the person is or becomes disqualified under sub-paragraph (1).71A person who holds office as the Ombudsman or an acting Ombudsman is disqualified from—abeing a listed authority;bbeing a member, co-opted member, officer or member of staff of a listed authority;cholding a paid office to which appointment is by a listed authority.2. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .81A person who has ceased to hold office as the Ombudsman

right that the person should receive compensation, the Assembly may pay to that person a sum of such amount as it thinks appropriate.4The Assembly must pay to the Minister for the Civil Service, at such times as the Minister may direct, such sums as the Minister may determine in respect of any increase attributable to paragraph 9(4) of Schedule 1 to the 2005 Act in the sums payable out of money

for the Civil Service, at such times as the Minister may direct, such sum as the Minister may determine in respect of any increase attributable to paragraph 11(4) of Schedule 1 to the 2005 Act in the sums payable out of money provided by Parliament under the Superannuation Act 1972 (c.11).<Emphasis>Advisers</Emphasis>131The Ombudsman may obtain advice from any person who, in the Ombudsman's
