Our Get Britain Working White Paper sets out that we plan to develop proposals for long term reform of the system of health and disability benefits.
We are working to develop proposals for Health and Disability reform in the months ahead and will set them out in a Green Paper in Spring.
The Get Britain Working White Paper also sets out our plans to bring down economic inactivity levels and take the first steps to delivering our long-term ambition to achieve an 80% employment rate. It can be accessed here:
