Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what steps he plans to take to help people with disabilities into work and training.

We have extended Access to Work to support disabled people take up supported internships and traineeships. We are launching Specialist Employability Support to provide intensive back to work support for more disabled people. We will continue to work with employers to ensure that they understand the benefits of recruiting and retaining disabled people.
