Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many applicants' claims have been rejected when transferring from Disability Living Allowance to Personal Independence Payment.

The latest available data on claimants that have been disallowed when transferring from Disability Living Allowance to Personal Independence Payment (PIP) can be found at https://stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/. Guidance on how to use Stat-Xplore can be found here:

https://sw.stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/webapi/online-help/index.html.

These statistics provide breakdowns of the number of claims cleared by type (e.g. awarded, disallowed or withdrawn) for both new claims and Disability Living Allowance (DLA) reassessment claims (filter on “reassessment” indicator) for each month since PIP was introduced in April 2013 for GB only.
