answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/05/2024 answer text <p>The purpose of the consultation is to open a conversation on Personal Independence Payment. The consultation is guided by three priorities: providing the right support to the people who need it most; targeting our resources most effectively; and supporting disabled people and people with long-term health conditions to live independently and reach their full potential. As we develop any proposals, we will carefully consider the impacts of any potential changes.</p><p>We recognise that as a Department we come into contact with some claimants who are potentially very vulnerable. We have a range of policies and procedures in place to help those individuals with difficult personal circumstances and/or life events to access benefits and use our services and will continue to provide this support should any changes be taken forward as a result of the consultation.</p> answering member printed Viscount Younger of Leckie question first answered 15/05/2024 15:19:06 answering member 4169 label Biography information for Viscount Younger of Leckie
