That this House believes that the claim form for the new disability living allowance and the disability working allowance benefits should be distributed widely to all information and advice agencies, hospitals, social services departments, Benefit Agency local offices and post offices and that the present plans by the Benefits Agency to restrict distribution will reduce take up of these new benefits and place exceptional pressure on the voluntary and statutory advice agency sector to the detriment of those in greatest need.
