New figures show there are far more disabled MPs in the House of Commons than previously thought.
43 out of 650 MPs had discussed the possibility of having disability-related adjustments made for them.
The figures show a huge increase on seven MPs who had workplace adjustments agreed in the last parliament.
Disability News Service estimated last month that there were about nine MPs who identify as disabled people.
