� Uses a conceptual framework to review the design and implementation of rules on the access to
employment by disabled people as a prelude to access to higher education by disabled people, using an
exemplary study of clinically depressed people within the UK context. The Disability Discrimination
Act (DDA) was enacted in the UK in November 1995, and the provisions regarding employment (Part
II) came into force in December 1996. The stated purpose of the DDA has included the ending of
discrimination in access to employment by disabled people, among others. The introduction of the
Special Educational Needs and Disability Act (SENDA) (2001) as well as the Disability Discrimination
(Amendment) Bill (DDAB) (2002) has revived the debate on the effectiveness of the DDA in increasing
access to employment by disabled people, but particularly by mentally disabled people. The devised
rules on the discrimination tests have not succeeded in ending discrimination against disabled people in
access to employment or to justice. Since the SENDA uses the similar tests as the DDA, it would fail to
end discrimination against disabled students in access to higher education.
