§ Mr. BarnesTo ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will outline the measures taken, facilities offered and adjustments made in her Department and agencies for which she is responsible to facilitate access for disabled people; what plans she has to improve access; and if she will make a statement. [18587]
§ Mr. SackvilleThe Department of Health is clearly committed to improving access for disabled people to all departmental buildings. For example, we are currently considering the recommendations of an independent access audit report which we commissioned on Richmond house. We are also mindful of the need to consider wider access issues, including the availability of information and publicity material.
