How is the Welsh Government working with the UK Government to help ex-offenders find work in order to reduce reoffending and help grow the economy?
Answered by Minister for Economy | Answered on 05/06/2023
The Welsh Government works closely with His Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service and Department for Work and Pensions to ensure our employability and skills support for ex-offenders is tailored to their needs and available at the earliest opportunity to help them secure employment.
In addition, prison inmates have access to Working Wales’s advisers who act as the referral point to our employment programmes such as ReAct+ and Communities for Work+.
