We are developing a Framework for Action on Independent Living for disabled people.
The Disability Equality Scheme set out on this page represents our first attempt at setting out how we promote equality of opportunity for disabled people.
This unique on-line guidance should be used as a tool by venue providers for assessing how best to meet the needs of disabled people.

This page contains links to further information concerning the ongoing work in the field of promoting disability equality.

The Welsh Government has a specific duty to ensure that individuals are not discriminated against on the grounds of disability.

The Welsh Government is also committed to engaging with and listening to the needs of disabled people, and addressing the historical imbalance which has resulted in many disabled people being socially excluded and undervalued.
