"The Commons Work and Pensions Committee is investigating the gap between the employment rates of disabled and non-disabled people and how the Department for Work and Pensions can better support disabled people in the labour market.
This evidence session is expected to cover issues around measuring the gap as well as the employment support available for people with specific conditions and disabilities.
MPs could also ask about the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on disabled people's employment rates, the support provided by the benefits system and the Government's plans for a National Strategy for Disabled People."
