Consultation

Terms of reference

The Equality, Local Government and Communities Committee terms of reference for its inquiry are to consider:

• The impact of extending the eligibility criteria for a Blue Badge in Wales, and whether further extensions to the criteria are needed;
• The practical implementation and consistency of the Blue Badge scheme across Wales, including assessments, fees and enforcement, and
• The support and information that is available to Blue Badge applicants in Wales

Providing written evidence

The National Assembly for Wales has two official languages, Welsh and English.

In line with the Assembly’s Official Languages Scheme, the Committee requests that documents or written responses to consultations intended for publication or use in National Assembly proceedings are submitted bilingually. When documents or written responses are not submitted bilingually, we will publish in the language submitted, stating that it has been received in that language only.

We expect other organisations to implement their own standards or schemes and to comply with their statutory obligation.

Please see guidance for those providing evidence for committees.

Disclosure of information

Please ensure that you have considered the Assembly’s policy on disclosure of information before submitting information to the Committee.
