Justin Tomlinson – 2021 Comments about Future of Disabled Benefits

The comments made by Justin Tomlinson, the Minister for Disabled People, on 20 July 2021.

I am incredibly pleased that in the course of putting this consultation together, we have been able to identify key themes for improvement.

We already spend a record amount supporting disabled people and people with health conditions, and have made good progress at supporting more disabled people into work but we are ambitious for further improvement – and I am grateful to the disabled people and stakeholders who have contributed so far.
