Enterprise Minister confirms grants are available to upgrade accessible facilities
Providing accessible changing rooms and toilet facilities shouldn't just be the responsibility of the visitor economy.
That's from Enterprise Minister Dr Alex Allinson, who was questioned about accessibility in government facilities at this week's sitting of the House of Keys.
He confirmed his department offers grants of up to £7,500 as an incentive to encourage businesses to upgrade their facilities for disabled visitors.
But, Dr Allinson says other sectors have a part to play:
