Government ‘has stripped Paralympians of their Motability vehicles’

http://www.disabledgo.com/blog/2016/...lity-vehicles/

Quote:
Paralympians heading to Rio next week have lost their Motability vehicles after being reassessed as part of the government’s programme of benefit cuts and reforms, a member of the ParalympicsGB team has revealed.

Some Paralympians have spoken previously of the importance of the support they receive from the benefits system, particularly through disability living allowance (DLA), but this is the first confirmation that any of them have lost that support as a result of the government’s austerity programme.
Surely this is another unintended consequence?
