Work and Pensions Committee Inquiry on parliament.uk ↗

Inquiry scope (the committee's words)
The Work and Pensions Committee held a one-off evidence session with organisations representing and supporting disabled people through the PIP and ESA assessment processes. This was a chance for the Committee to: - Understand the progress that has been made since the previous Committee reported on PIP and ESA assessments in 2018; - Understand what reforms are needed, and whether these can be accomplished within the existing assessment systems; - Explore the implications of DWP’s proposed reforms to the processes, via the Health Transformation Programme.
