UN calls for UK benefit cuts to be reversed
Once again, UN experts have expressed serious concern about the impact of austerity measures imposed by the UK government. In its concluding remarks, the UN Committee scrutinizing the UK under the International Convention on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights questioned why the government has made no attempt to carry out a "comprehensive assessment of the cumulative impact" on the rights of Disabled people and other groups and called for the benefit cuts that came in through the 2012 and 2016 welfare reform acts to be reversed. The Committee also reflected Disabled people's key concerns over the repealing of the Human Rights Act, the disproportionate impact of austerity measures and the impact of changes to social security and the legal aid system as well as the need for greater investment in mental health services.
