Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Culture, Skills and Social Partnership
Jane Hutt, Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice has written to Stephen Timms, the UK Minister for Social Security, to highlight the importance of the Access to Work scheme and the need to address operational challenges to improve both access and the timeliness of support. Enhancing Access to Work also featured in the Welsh Government’s response to the UK Government’s Pathways to Work Green Paper. Most recently, my Cabinet colleague, Jane Hutt raised the issue again during a meeting with Liz Kendall, the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, which she attended alongside the First Minister.
