Government in Talks with Leading Disability Charities on Fairness of PIP

The DWP Minister has publicly offered to hold talks with Disability Rights UK and the Disability Benefits Consortium following a House of Lords debate on 4 May 2016. Disability Rights UK (DRUK) has stated that their preferred option “would be that the enhanced rate of PIP be awarded to all those who now and in the future cannot reliably walk up to 50 metres.” DRUK went on to say that “given the agreement for talks, we call on the Minister to publish detailed breakdowns of those not being awarded PIP enhanced mobility so that all discussions can be fully informed.” View article.
