We cannot talk about levelling up or dignity in public life while ignoring the daily barriers faced by disabled people. Nor can we claim to support rural communities while expecting vulnerable residents to navigate a postcode lottery of restrictions that limit their independence and opportunity. I urge the Minister to look closely at the benefits of removing those time restrictions altogether. Let us give disabled people one less barrier to face in their everyday lives and move toward a system that treats all with fairness, dignity and respect.
