Disabled Children And Housing

EDM number 1710 in 2007-08, proposed by Phyllis Starkey on 05/06/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Child care, Equality and Housing.

That this House welcomes the new campaign briefing, Disabled Children and Housing, produced by the Every Disabled Child Matters campaign with the support of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation; recognises the commitment made through the Aiming High for Disabled Children programme to transform the health and social care services available to disabled children and their families; notes that housing issues are not central to this programme; further notes with concern the evidence in Disabled Children and Housing that fewer than half of families with disabled children live in housing suitable to their needs, and that the primary problem for families whose children have all types of disabilities is lack of space; acknowledges the impact of bad housing on the ability of disabled children to develop independent living skills and the physical and mental health of parents; and calls on the Department for Communities and Local Government, the Department for Children, Schools and Families, regional government, local housing authorities and housing providers to respond positively to the recommendations in the briefing in order to provide families with disabled children with housing that meets their needs.

This motion has been signed by a total of 152 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
