<p><em>Improving Lives; the Work, Health and Disability Green Paper</em> was published
on 31 October 2016 and the consultation closed on 17 February 2017. The Green Paper
explored a range of ways to improve the prospects and transform the lives of disabled
people by removing barriers that prevent them from working, and helping ensure that
they are able to remain in employment. We received over 6000 of responses and engaged
in a wide range of conversations with stakeholders during the consultation period,
supported by over 166 accessible events held across England, Scotland, and Wales.
We are now carefully considering the consultation responses and next steps for longer-term
reform and will set these out in due course</p><p> </p>
