Labour — East Ham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 September 2025

Debate

Young Disabled People: Labour Market Inequalities

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman raises a very important point. There are excellent examples of job carving for people with complex needs, and we need more of that. We look forward to the report being submitted soon by Sir Charlie Mayfield on what more employers can do to open up opportunities for people out of work on disability grounds, and I think he will have some very interesting proposals.
