Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 November 2011. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Big Society Agenda.


Big Society Agenda

One group directly affected is that of people with disabilities, and I hope there will be a chance to speak of them later. I am sure the hon. Gentleman is aware that up to 45% of people in Northern Ireland have disabilities. Does he feel that that community needs to be safeguarded within this process?
