DWP places disability assessments under review after accusations of needless and humiliating hurdles
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed that the application process for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is being "kept under review". This comes after Liberal Democrat MP Ian Roome questioned why "reassessments are being scheduled for people with incurable disabilities and terminal illnesses", calling attention to a constituent who is sight-impaired, deaf-blind registered and unable to use a phone or fill out forms.
