Citizens Charter

HC Deb 07 July 1993 vol 228 cc158-9W

Mr. Pike

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster how many charters make specific reference to the needs of disabled people.

Mr. Davis

I should like to correct a minor error to the answer given to this question on Monday 8 March 1993 at column657 by my hon. Friend the Member for Wantage (Mr. Jackson), the then Parliamentary Secretary, Office of Public Service and Science. On that date the number of charters that made specific reference to the needs of people with disabilities was 24, not 25. I apologise for this error.

Today, 27 out of 32 published charters make a reference to people with disabilities.
