Take-Up Of Disability Working Allowance

EDM number 159 in 1992-93, proposed by Paul Flynn on 02/06/1992.

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.

This motion has been signed by a total of 101 MPs.
