Consultation results
Purpose of the consultation
This consultation seeks the
views of all interested parties to help inform the content of my proposed Bill.
The Financial Education and Inclusion (Wales) Bill would seek to increase
prosperity in Wales by improving the financial education and literacy of our
citizens. My proposals fall into two broad categories:
- Improving financial
capability amongst school-age children and young people by making it a
legal requirement that financial education is included in the school
curriculum;
- Strengthening the role
of local authorities in helping people avoid falling into financial
difficulty, by requiring local authorities to adopt a financial inclusion
strategy to promote financial literacy and address issues around financial
inclusion.
I also propose to include provisions in the Bill relating to
internet access in public libraries; the financial education of looked-after
children; and the signposting of information about financial management.
