DWP Launch Consultation On Mobility Component Of Personal Independence Payment

Press Release From The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP):

DWP has announced a further consultation on the mobility component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP) to be launched late June 2013.

Today the DWP is giving notice of a further consultation on the mobility component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP), as part of the on-going process of engagement through the introduction of the new benefit.

The new PIP assessment has been designed to target support on those who need it most – those individuals who face the greatest barriers to participating in society.

However, the department has received significant feedback from disabled people and their organisations that they want a further opportunity to comment on the finalised assessment criteria rules around the mobility component. That is why it is now giving notice of a further consultation to be launched late June.
