eligible for a vehicle. that's nearly half of those who have been reassessed. latest figures also show that nearly two thirds of deals are found in a claimant's favour, leading mps and charities to call for changes. when people have their specially adapted vehicle removed, this can have a real negative impact on the quality of life and independence as well. so we want to make sure that the dwp change their policy on this area. we don't think the vehicles should be taken away from people until they've had a chance to appeal against a particular decision. the department for work and pensions says there are 70,000 more people on the motability scheme than there were in 2010. and those who lose their cars are eligible for £2000 worth of support. in a moment a summary of the business news this hour but first. the headlines on bbc news: melania trump has
