You do realise that the money isn't being taken away it is being ringfenced .All the government are doing is what the majority of charities want which is to stop segregating disabled people and help them to work in the mainstream work enviroment .
When Remploy was started back in 1945 the world was different place with very few if any work places willing or able to employ disabled people .Now with modern disability laws factories and offices are not allowed to discriminate so the Remploy factories are not needed ,they are a drain on any budget set aside for helping disabled people .Very few of the factories actually break even they are sucking up the money meant for other purposes so the best thing all round is to shut them and use the money to help more disabled people more effectively
