Disabled voters quiz Scottish parties
Next Thursday 3 May sees elections taking place north of the border in Scotland for council seats and seats in the Holyrood Parliament. BBC Scotland's Ian Hamilton has conducted a special election webcast featuring a panel of party representatives from across the political spectrum, all of them facing questions from disabled people and disability organisations. You can listen to the resulting debate on the BBC News website, which points out that with 1 million disabled people listed as residing in Scotland during the last census, if all of them turn out to vote in a week's time they could make a significant impact on the shape of the Scottish Parliament and local authorities.
