Stephen urges Government to improve Access to Work

During oral questions to the Department for Work and Pensions on Monday 11 July, Stephen pressed the Minister on improving the Access to Work scheme.

Last November, the Government responded to a report by the Select Committee for Work and Pensions - which Stephen chairs - on the disability employment gap. Within this response, it promised to improve Access to Work, which provides help to support people with a physical or mental health condition or disability to access work.

Speaking in the House of Commons, Stephen pressed the Minister for an update on delivering this promise. You can watch his full question - and the Minister’s response - below.
