Disability Bill 2004
Public bill · Government · Presented
The Disability Bill 2004 would give people with disabilities a right to have their health and education needs assessed and to receive a statement of the services they should get, with complaints, appeals and court enforcement where services are not provided. It would also require public bodies to improve access to buildings, services, information, transport and heritage sites, support employment of people with disabilities in the public service, restrict the use of genetic information, and promote accessible design and broadcasting. These rights would remain subject to available resources and practical or safety limits.
