The NHS Redress (Wales) Measure 2008 (nawm 1) (Welsh: Mesur Gwneud Iawn am Gamweddau'r GIG (Cymru) 2008) is the first piece of primary legislation passed by the Welsh Assembly with its greater law-making powers in the wake of the Government of Wales Act 2006. It was passed by the Welsh Assembly on 6 May 2008 and became law on 9 July 2008 when the Queen approved it through an order in Council of the Privy Council. The measure allows Welsh Ministers to make regulations to specify how it would work in practice.
