Part VI of the Children's Commissioner for Wales Regulations 2001 makes provision for specific reports to be made by the Commissioner.
Part VI is amended in order to provide that where the Commissioner and the Commissioner for Older People in Wales discharge their functions in relation to the same matter, the Commissioner may make a joint report with the Commissioner for Older People in Wales.
