Introduction

1.These explanatory notes are for the National Assembly for Wales (Remuneration) Measure 2010 which was passed by the National Assembly for Wales on 26 May 2010 and approved by Her Majesty in Council on [21 July 2010]. They have been prepared by the Rt Hon the Lord Elis-Thomas AM, the Chair of the Assembly Commission, to assist understanding of the Measure. They do not form part of the Measure and have not been endorsed by the National Assembly for Wales.

2.The notes need to be read in conjunction with the Measure. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Measure. So, where a section or part of a section does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
