Thanks ever so much for coming in this afternoon. I hope you don’t mind, my questions are mainly aimed at you, Gerraint, if that’s okay, about the Engage to Change project. I just want to get a bit more information about that. What were the objectives of it…

Yes. So, one of the things that we're getting fed back is that there's a lack of apprenticeship opportunities. There's a lack of awareness of the ones that are there, both with the apprentice, but then also with the employer, really.

Again, some of the consultation responses we've been getting, especially from disabled people, they’ve basically said, 'There are far too few voluntary opportunities.' And then, when there are work placements, it always seems to be the same, like maybe the…

You mentioned there about systemic ableism. That's one of the concerns that I have; it's one of the concerns that has been expressed to the committee before, where an employer would look at, say, a person with a disability as maybe less productive than…
