2007 APT Evaluation
In the Summer of 2007, an Evaluation was commissioned to review APT activities and services, to establish how resources can best be used and to inform the provision of future services and funding requirements. It looked comprehensively at organisational and development issues and at the range of services currently offered to APT members. The Executive Summary of the 2007 APT Evaluation can be downloaded in English and Welsh.
