answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2014 answer text <p /> <p /> <p>We are committed to ensuring personal independence payment (PIP) claimants receive high quality, objective, fair and accurate assessments. Since the introduction of PIP new claims in April 2013, we have been closely monitoring all aspects of the process.</p><p> </p><p>As personal independence payment (PIP) is a new benefit, processes are currently bedding in. Our latest analysis is telling us that the end-to-end claimant journey is taking longer than expected. We are working closely with the assessment providers to ensure that they are taking all necessary steps to improve performance, speed up the process and ensure claimants receive a satisfactory experience. We are also seeking to ensure that all the steps in the process run as smoothly as possible and that there are no barriers in our processes and systems that contribute to claims taking longer than necessary to progress.</p><p> </p><p>The first official statistics for the number of people claiming Personal Independence Payment (PIP) was published on 5<sup>th</sup> June alongside updated statistics on PIP new claim registrations, decisions and awards.</p><p> </p><p>Statistics on clearance times are not being published at this stage. Statistics on clearance times are intended for future publication but releasing them at this stage would give a skewed representation of the process since steady state has not yet been reached and natural reassessment has yet to rollout across the country.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning grouped question UIN 198779 question first answered 09/06/2014 14:13:58 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
