HC Deb 26 February 1982 vol 18 cc515-6W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he has studied the leaflets giving guidance on help available to disabled people that have been published in the languages of ethnic minorities by the disabilities study unit; if his Department will give assistance in making the leaflets more widely known and available to the disabled people they can assist; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Rossi

I have seen the leaflets and appreciate the value of voluntary organisations making available their advice and information to ethnic minorities, as to the rest of the population. However, this particular leaflet seems rather narrow in scope and is already out of date. I would prefer any leaflet for disabled people to be more comprehensive.
