HC Deb 04 November 1987 vol 121 c771W
Mr. Chris Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many of the members of the Disablement Services Authority have any form of disability; and what steps he is taking to arrange for disabled people to be more widely represented on the authority.

Mr. Scott

One member of the Disablement Services Authority is a double amputee and another is a wheelchair user. We have no plans for changing the present membership of the authority.
