§ Ms. ShortTo ask the Secretary of State for Social Security in what ways participation in employment training or youth training will affect the eligibility for disability living allowance of a person with a disability who will qualify for either the mobility and/or care elements of disability living allowance after April 1992; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. ScottParticipation in employment training or youth training will not affect entitlement to either component of disability living allowance. There will be no change in the curent arrangements for attendance allowance; after six months on such a scheme, claimants will be asked whether their needs have changed. The award may then be reviewed, depending on the claimant's answer.
