Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, if she will work with (a) disabled people and (b) disability charities in the development of the Government’s new approach to consumer protection.

Throughout the consultative process in relation to reforming competition and consumer policy, the Government has been open to hearing from a full range of stakeholders, including disability and vulnerability advocacy groups.

We will continue to engage with stakeholders during Bill passage to ensure consumer protection reforms are tailored to and reflect the full range of consumer needs across the UK.
