Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Written Statement of 5 June 2018, on Personal Independence Payments, HCWS733, what the timetable is for the commencement of (a) a pilot scheme and (b) a full rollout of the proposed policy of video recording personal independence payment assessments.
As part of our commitment to improve the PIP assessment process we are exploring options to video record PIP face to face assessments.
We are starting the test this summer, which will inform wider rollout decisions.
