National Assembly for Wales e-petition e-Petition: 23 Nov 2017: We call for all premises in Wales to be awarded an Access Certificate number similar to the Food Hygiene Certificate.
We are calling for the Welsh Government to bring in an “Access Certificate” showing numbers from zero to five along the lines of the Food Hygiene Certificate. All buildings used by the public such as shops, food outlets, sports clubs, pubs and offices as well as public transport services should be assessed on how wheelchair accessible they are, as well as how easy it is for someone with a sensory impairment or learning disability to use.
We want all premises to be given a number which they could then display to show how disabled friendly their premises are. We hope that those who achieve high ratings will possibly persuade other nearby premises to improve access and get a high rating themselves.
Closing date: 1 March 2018
