Disability Discrimination Act, Airlines

EDM number 127 in 2001-02, proposed by Diana Organ on 12/07/2001.

That this House regrets that airlines and airports are exempt from the Disability Discrimination Act 1996; calls upon the Government to remove their exempt status so that blind or partially-sighted people are able to fly with their guide dogs, as the 'Passport for Pets' scheme introduced in the last administration enables airlines and airports to register to take assistance animals only; and believes this will ensure that blind and partially-sighted travellers are not discriminated against.

This motion has been signed by a total of 131 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
