The sources in this article are a little sketchy to say the least. But if such an inquiry did happen, what would be the consequences? Moreoever, do you think the government has violated the rights of the disabled?

*Inquiry, apologies.
Unless the specific 'systematic and grave' circumstances are known (the link to the article of last August waffles on about 'articles 19 [on living independently and being included in the community]and 28 [on providing an adequate standard of living and social protection].” I'm not sure anyone can provide meaningful,comment.
Sounds good. A secret enquiry into unspecified allegations by a toothless organisation that nobody pays much attention to.

So to answer your questions:

1. I doubt anything will happen as the UN cannot tackle civil wars and famine so it's doubtful they can impose any sanctions against the UK for failing to provide the correct ratio of disabled toilets (if indeed that's what the allegation is).

2. I think the UK has gone much further than most countries in providing facilities for the less able and ensuring they have the same rights as everybody else.
