PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
TAKE-UP OF DISABILITY WORKING ALLOWANCE (1 June 1992)
Motion Details
That this House is shocked that only 588 people have, up to 8th May, been awarded the Disability Working Allowance; notes that represents only 6.5 per cent. of the total who applied in answer to the Government's ú3.7 million wildly inaccurate advertising campaign; and regrets that thousands of people with disabilities have been cruelly misled into the false belief that they are entitled to the new benefit.
