What provision has been made for access to the Senedd for people with disabilities?
The Assembly’s aspiration in developing the design was that the building should be exemplar in terms of accessibility for all. This has been achieved in terms of all public areas however it has not been possible to meet the target in relation to the debating chamber. There have been competing priorities between accessibility and broadcasting requirements which have meant that the level of access achieved within the chamber is 70%. An Access Advisory Group was established during the design and build process, which consisted of representatives of disability interest groups from across Wales.
