The Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (LUHC) Committee launched an online survey for its inquiry looking at what Government can do to ensure disabled people have access to accessible and adaptable housing in England.

Open from: 18th January  – 15th February 2024

The results of this survey informed the report Disabled People in the Housing Sector’ produced by the  House of Commons  on 24th May 2024. It had recommendations to government which had two months to respond.  The July election will have impacted on this timeline.

The Government is looking to reform the disability benefits system, moving away from the one size fits all approach.

The Modernising Support Green Paper will explore how the welfare system could be redesigned ensuring people with disabilities and long-term health conditions get the support they need to achieve the best outcomes and will centre on targeting and improving the support for those who need it the most.
