OPIN-2026-0545 Statement of Opinion calling for a Pan-Wales assessment of housing needs for adults with learning disabilities (e) Tabled on 06/10/2026

This Senedd:
1. Supports the call by First Choice Housing Association for a pan-Wales assessment of housing needs, per local authority, for adults with learning disabilities.
2. Notes the absence of this data is contributing to a failure in the integration of care and housing for adults with learning disabilities.
3. Further notes that consequently, some of the most vulnerable people in society are being detained in hospitals, often hundreds of miles from their communities and families, with little or no plan for what will happen to them.
4. Calls on this Senedd to commit to working with Welsh Government to end this practice.
