Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will take steps to establish a long-term disability strategy from 2024.

The Government set out its long-term disability strategy in the National Disability Strategy published in 2021. The National Disability Strategy sets out our ambition to improve the lives of all disabled people.

In addition, the Government has recently completed a consultation on the Disability Action Plan, which will set out the immediate action the Government is taking this year and in 2024 to improve disabled people’s lives, as well as laying the foundations for longer term change.
