When does the Welsh Government intend to begin its review of the learner travel Measure?
Answered by Deputy Minister for Transport | Answered on 14/08/2026
As a Government we have committed in our First 100 Days programme to begin a review of the Learner Travel Measure, with a particular focus on improving access to Welsh-medium education. This work has already begun and will feed into a consultation on the National Framework for Welsh Language Education and Learning Welsh later this year.
We will take early action where improvements can be made, including updating guidance for local authorities and considering the findings of our review, while ensuring any changes are practical, affordable and deliver better outcomes for learners.
