I’ll be at the ODI live streaming of Periodic examination of the UK by UN Disability Committee at Caxton house on the 24th August as that is the day that Welfare and social care for disabled people will most likely be discussed/ streamed.
I’d been in contact with Jacqui Wyatt via several emails and she is well aware that I’m a DPAC member and chair of Suffolk DPAC, I also communicated my access needs wheelchair access and that I’ll be using a digital recorder for access purposes, so with a bit of luck if I’m not subject to a confidentiality agreement there will be a report sent to DPAC asap.

You don’t get a response even if you do send the completed form to them!
Wow. This is so Inclusive. I love how the poorest disabled people, the cohort who have been most trampled over by the Westminster Government, are being marginalised once again. Bravo, ODI. Do keep up the good work.
