Intergroup on Disability

The Disability Intergroup is an all-party group of MEPs from all nationalities which works to further disability rights.  Established in 1980, its full name is the All Party Disablement Group.

The Intergroup meets in Strasbourg to discuss issues of concern to disabled people, disability groups and the EU institutions.

The Intergroup members take follow-up action on priorities for disabled people, such as in putting forward Parliamentary questions to the Commission, tabling amendments to Parliaments reports on EU policy and programmes of interest and concern to disabled people.

The objectives of the Intergroup on Disability:
• To discuss issues of concern to disabled people, disability groups and the EU institutions
• To take follow-up action on priorities for disabled people, such as in putting Parliamentary questions to the Commission, tabling amendments to Parliaments reports on EU policy and programmes of interest and concern to disabled people
• To ensure strong dialogue between the MEPs active on the Intergroup and the representative disability NGOs based at European, national and local level
