📜Disclosure (Scotland) Act 2020 update - from, today, 1 April 2026, PVG scheme membership will operate on a five‑year model.

This replaces lifetime membership for people carrying out regulated roles. The change helps keep PVG scheme membership information current and supports a more accurate safeguarding system. Existing application processes remain the same.

The Motability scheme plays a vital role in removing barriers for many disabled people. It supports independence, employment, family life, and participation in communities.

Through this survey, we want to understand:
• How disabled people currently experience Motability
• What impact recent and upcoming changes to the service may have
• Why the scheme is important and where it falls short

Your experiences will help us build evidence and strengthen our advocacy.
