Consultation on Work Capability Assessment

Early day motion 652, tabled 17 January 2025 by John McDonnell (Independent). Signed by 20 members.

That this House notes the High Court judgement ruling that the last Government's consultation on changes to the criteria for the Work Capability Assessment was unlawful; and calls upon the new Government to ensure that any proposals to reform the Work Capability Assessment are undertaken by a process of co-production with disabled people and the organisations, groups and campaigning bodies representing disabled people including Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC) and on the basic principle advocated by disabled people of "nothing about us, without us."

Signatures by party: Independent 6, Labour 5, Plaid Cymru 4, Green 2, DUP 1, Labour/Co-operative 1, Liberal Democrat 1.
