Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 December 2025

Debate

Employment Gap for Blind and Sight-impaired People

Contribution

My Lords, the Minister acknowledges the sight-loss employment gap. How many full-time equivalent disability employment advisers are employed by the DWP—and do all DEAs have specific sight-loss training? Do access to work assessors and jobcentre staff have sight-loss training and, if they do not, will the Government seek to remedy this?
