This consultation seeks the views of stakeholders on the Welsh Government’s draft Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Bill. The draft Bill sets out proposals for a new legislative system for supporting children and young people aged 0–25 who have additional learning needs. The new system would replace the existing legislation surrounding special educational needs and the assessment of children and young people with learning difficulties and/or disabilities in post-16 education and training.
Responses to this consultation should be e-mailed/posted to the respond address below to arrive by 18 December 2015 at the latest.
