Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many EU citizens residing in the UK have a disability.
Following publication of our paper Safeguarding the position of EU Citizens in the UK and UK nationals in the EU on 26 June, my officials have begun discussions with a range of groups representing EU citizens in the UK, including those representing vulnerable groups.
We are committed to continuing this dialogue over the coming months. DWP publish disability facts and figures, and ONS publish statistics on the UK resident population, however these do not include data on the number of EU citizens residing in the UK who have a disability.
