In our Green Paper, Pathways to Work: Reforming Benefits and Support to Get Britain Working, we announced plans to launch a process to review the PIP assessment. We will bring together a range of experts, stakeholders and people with lived experience to consider how best to do this and to start the process as part of preparing for a review. Timings for the review have not yet been confirmed. Any changes to the PIP assessment will need to work alongside the reforms set out in the Green Paper and we will provide further details as plans progress.
