Question
What steps is the Welsh Government taking to improve access to employment opportunities for adults with additional learning needs?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Culture, Skills and Social Partnership
We are addressing this through a range of interventions as set out in our Employability and Skills Plan. This includes the work of our Disabled People’s Employment Champions and the Apprenticeship programme that provides support for people with learning disabilities. We are also working with the Department for Work and Pensions and other key partners to ensure that the employability needs of people with additional learning needs are being taken into account in the development of employability programmes in Wales.
