Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 6 February 2023 to Question 135440 on Disability Living Allowance and Personal Independence Payment, what assessment he has made of the reason for the increase in the number of Personal Independence Payment claims disallowed for non-return of the AR1 form between 2017 and 2021.
No such assessment has been carried out as we do not collect information on the causation of a failure to return the AR1 review forms, which then result in a disallowance for Personal Independence Payment.
