The Government has published a consultation paper on its priorities for learning disabilities over the next three years. It is a cross-government consultation which sets the agenda across a range of issues, including health and well-being, housing, employment, education and community inclusion. The key areas it will focus on are: the personalisation agenda - having choice and control through individual budgets, direct payments, person centred planning and advocacy; what people do - helping people to be socially included in their local communities, with a particular focus on paid work - better health - ensuring that the mainstream NHS provides full and equal access to good quality healthcare and that specialist healthcare services are modernised; access to housing - ensuring that people have access to housing that they want and need with a focus on home ownership and real tenancies; making sure that change happens - making learning disability partnership boards more effective.
