Ongoing Consultations
Disability Strategy Engagement

The DWP (Department for Work and Pension) Disability Strategy Engagement was launched on 2 December 2011 with comments to be submitted until 9 March 2012.

The Government’s ambition is to enable disabled people to fulfil their potential and have opportunities to play a full role in society.

This new strategy will build on previous discussions with disabled people, including the Independent Living Strategy, the Roadmap and the UK’s report to the UN on implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Disabled People.

ODI (Office for Disability Issues) has worked with disability organisations to create a discussion document which is available here.

Further information and alternative formats of the document can be found here.

Thank you to Mary White for sharing the information.
