Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between David Mundell and Liz Kendall

Monday 12th May 2025 Commons Chamber

[Liz Kendall]

Our reforms to Access to Work are not about savings; they are about ensuring that this brilliant service is available to more people in future. We are also looking at how it might be delivered—whether it will continue to be delivered through the Department, or through an arm’s length body—or, indeed, an organisation run by and for disabled people. This is a big opportunity to make changes to a brilliant programme, and I know that the Select Committee will engage with us on this.

[David Mundell (Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale) (Con)]
