"This law does not change the Ombudsmen's jobs unless it says so."

This Act does not change the work of the Ombudsmen, as stated in the Ombudsmen Act 1975, unless it specifically says so. You can find the Ombudsmen Act 1975 at https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=DLM430983. The Ombudsmen still have the same jobs and powers as they did before this Act was made.
