Question
What steps is the Welsh Government taking to increase the accessibility of major events for disabled people?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for the Economy, Transport and North Wales
The Welsh Government supports a diverse range of events that help increase accessibility for disabled people.
To ensure events are accessible to all spectators and attendees, events supported and part-funded by Welsh Government are required to comply with legislation ensuring accessibility for disabled people. Our grants are conditional on receiving satisfactory event management plans detailing the measures taken by organisers to make their events sustainable and accessible.
