AnnotationIn November 1998, the REU and Black Spectrum held a one-day consultative event attended by black and minority ethnic (BME) disabled people and representatives of black disability organisations interested in direct payments. This report sets out some of the key issues that emerged from the event, including issues around information, families, support, and the practicalities of using direct payments. It offers good practice examples from the Council of Disabled People Warwickshire (CDP). An agenda for action in policy, practice, research and development is suggested. The Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) has supported this project as part of its programme of research and innovative development projects. (RH).
