Disability Working Group Report

The Disability Working Group's report made 48 recommendations, providing the Executive, local authorities, employers, educators, community care providers and others with suggested approaches to change their actions and attitudes. . . . "The Group's recommendations provide both an agenda for immediate action and platform for the future. The process has drawn on the expertise of a variety of disability organisations, but there are many other organisations and many disabled people with views which still need to be heard. New issues will no doubt emerge and new recommendations will need to be made. Therefore, we hope the outcomes from the report are monitored regularly and that the positive dialogue between the Executive and the disability sector continues to improve the lives of disabled people in Scotland."
