Restore earnings threshold for people with disabilities in line with the cost of living.
Currently, people with disabilities and their careers are able to earn only £20 per week before their benefits are cut. This threshold has remained unchanged for years without regard to increases in the cost of living. This petition recognises that this situation is in urgent need of review and calls for the earnings threshold to be restored to the value intended by the original legislators.
