DISABILITY BENEFITS (No. 2)

Early day motion 670, tabled 21 January 1998 by Roger Berry (Labour). Signed by 150 members.

That this House believes that adequate levels of disability benefits are essential to help offset the extra costs of disability, to guarantee a level of income that ensures equality between disabled people and non-disabled people, and to enable the Government to achieve its objective of full civil rights for disabled people; and would be strongly opposed to any proposals that would undermine these objectives.
