Written Question
Employment: Disability
Monday 11th July 2016

Asked by: Glyn Davies (Conservative - Montgomeryshire)

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what steps he is taking to support people with disabilities and health conditions who are looking for work.

Answered by Justin Tomlinson

This government is committed to halving the disability employment gap. In the spending review we announced a real terms spending increase on supporting disabled people into work.

In the last two years, 365,000 disabled people have entered employment. Our forthcoming Green Paper will set out our plans to support more disabled people into work.
