MOBILITY SCOOTERS

That this House notes that disabled adults are twice as likely to live in low-income households as non-disabled adults, and that two-fifths of adults aged from 45 to 65 who are living on below-average incomes have a limiting, long-standing illness or disability; further notes that the reclassification of mobility scooters by the European Union means that they are now subject to a 10 per cent. import tax and that this will in many cases be passed on to the consumer; therefore believes that this reclassification amounts to a tax on the disabled; and joins the charity Elizabeth Finn Care in calling on the Government to press the EU to reverse this decision or introduce measures in the UK that will ensure that the hardship of some of the most financially vulnerable people in society is not increased.
