Sir Stephen Timms

Labour — East Ham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 March 2025

Debate

Disability Living Allowance

Contribution

My hon. Friend is absolutely right to press for improvements. We want to change how we think about jobcentres and the benefit system. Our youth work coaches talk a lot to disabled young people and are very keen to help more. Our reforms are making that possible, by giving better help and support, and by opening up new opportunities for disabled young people up and down the country.
