Yes, I completely agree. I think it’s important that the Assembly and the Commission are showing leadership in this area too, not only in signing up to the Time to Change Wales pledge, but in recognising that being able to go back to work, and being able to remain in work, is really important for maintaining people’s sense of self-worth and well-being. I think most of us here get some enjoyment from actually being in the workplace. For lots of people, it can be a really important part of staying well and then recovering too. So, I’m really pleased to hear that the Commission is showing leadership in this area.
