The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether her Department intends to implement the recommendations of the Disability Action Plan, published on 5 February 2024.

Answered by Sir Stephen Timms

The Disability Action Plan was an initiative of the previous administration. This government is committed to championing the rights of disabled people. We will build on the insights shared by disabled people and their representative organisations, working closely with them so that their views and voices are at the heart of everything we do.

We will provide further updates on the Government’s priorities for disability policy in due course
