I pay tribute to the way in which my hon. Friend has shared a heart-warming and positive story from Tunbridge Wells. Does he recognise the statistic about tight labour markets? The Shaw Trust, among others, has suggested to me that the employment rate of disabled people in Berkshire could be eight or 10 times higher than the employment rate of disabled people in Bridgend. We must understand that and develop policies to deal with it.
