Proceeding contribution from Lord Grayling (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on Tackling Poverty in the UK.

Tackling Poverty in the UK

That is an important point. We must encourage and work with employers, and we should start at home. Whitehall and Government Departments and agencies should be at the forefront of finding the best ways to provide opportunities for people with disabilities, and that will be a priority for my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary. If we do not lead from the front, no one else will, and that is something that we certainly want to see happen.
