Public ISBD [article]  inThe british journal of social work > 7, vol. 37 (oct. 2007) . - pp. 1189-1204 Titre : Direct Payments and Disabled People in the UK : Supply, Demand and Devolution Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mark Priestley, Auteur ; Debbie Jolly, Auteur ; Charlotte Pearson, Auteur ; Sheila Ridell, Auteur ; Colin Barnes, Auteur ; Geof Mercer, Auteur Editeur : Oxford : Oxford university press - GB - Oxford Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : pp. 1189-1204 Langues : Français (fre) Catégories : Cardijn Allocation # Handicaps # Législation Mots-clés : Handicap  Législation  Allocation Résumé : "Direct payments have brought new opportunities for self-determination and independent living to disabled people in the UK, featuring prominently in government strategy and the 2006 White Paper, ‘Our Health, Our Care, Our Say’. However, ten years after direct payments legislation, take-up remains low and implementation varies greatly. Rates of take-up in England remain more than double those in other parts of the UK, raising questions about devolution and equity. This paper presents data from a national study to examine some of the mechanisms underlying uneven outcomes for disabled people in different parts of the United Kingdom, with particular reference to the politics of devolved governance. The analysis focuses on scope for interpretations of policy; resources for information and training; the impact of mandatory duties and targets; extensions to new user groups; and the role of support organizations and disability activism. The evidence suggests that local variations have been produced not only by ‘local’ factors, but also by different opportunity structures for policy development in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. This raises questions about the impact of devolution on equity and opportunity for disabled people in the UK."
