The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she is will hold discussions with Auditory Verbal UK on tackling barriers to opportunities for deaf children.

There are no current plans to meet. However, I note that my colleague the Minister for Early Education has met with and visited Auditory Verbal UK to understand the work they are doing to improve the lives of deaf children.
