Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether her Department has plans to introduce the video recording of assessments for personal independence payments in Scotland.
As part of our commitment to improve the Personal Independence Payment assessment process, we are progressing options to video record PIP face to face assessments across Great Britain. Following comprehensive work over the summer, we are designing a live testing pilot, due to begin in England later this year. The pilot will inform any full wider roll out decisions, which will be discussed with the Scottish Government.
