This article describes how a new Parliament opens new opportunities. The article presents the authors priorities and objectives for this parliament, with a focus on disability issues. Five objectives are outlined: deliver a national care and support system based on clear rights to independent living; develop and implement a strategy to end disability poverty and financial exclusion; speed up the transformation of infrastructure so as to enable full, safe and independent access for disabled people; unlock the potential of disabled people through education, skills, work and representation in public life; and give real equality and justice focusing on a change in enforcement of equality.
