Consultation on the Welsh Government’s draft framework and action plan to improve access to help, advice and services for disabled people in Wales. The Framework aims to tackle inequalities and poverty experienced by disabled people, promote equality of opportunity and provide support to more easily access resources and services. It has been informed by two years of engagement with disabled people and disabled people’s organisations. The Framework: outlines the statutory and policy context; outlines progress and developments since the previous Framework for Action on Independent Living was published in 2013; summarises the issues raised and comments made by disabled people in our engagement events; sets out Welsh Government’s commitments in relation to disabled people which will underpin policy. Areas covered in the action plan include: employment; health and social care; education; and transport. The consultation was launched on 22 October 2018 and ends 18 January 2019.
