Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, in what ways her Department's work to give people in developing countries better access to financial services takes account of (a) lack of braille facilities, (b) laws and practices discriminating against people with disabilities and (c) other barriers experienced by people with disabilities.

Our financial sector development programmes work to strengthen regulation, build infrastructure and improve financial capability to increase the access of poor people, including disadvantaged groups, to financial services that meet their needs.
