	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/04/2024 answer text <p>Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is intended to provide a contribution towards the extra costs of people with long-term health conditions and disabilities and is available irrespective of their past or current employment. The benefit is non means–tested, non-contributory and thus paid regardless of any income or savings. It can be paid at one of eight rates depending on the level of the individual’s needs.</p><p> </p><p>Entitlement to PIP is assessed on the basis of the needs arising from a health condition or disability, rather than the health condition or disability itself. Individuals can be affected in different ways by the same condition and so the outcome of a PIP claim depends very much on individual circumstances. Where a claimant’s needs change they may see a higher or lower award or lose entitlement altogether.</p><p><br> As PIP is needs-based and paid in the terms outlined above, we have no initiatives which are targeted at veterans.</p> answering member constituency Mid Sussex answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 15/04/2024 10:58:35 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies

We’re also getting support directly to those who need it, with the £104 billion Cost of Living package worth an average £3,800 per household.</p><p> </p><p>Veterans’ employment is at an all-time high, with 89% of those leaving service finding employment within six months, but we're determined to go further. That is why we recently launched OP PROSPER, our dedicated employment pathway for veterans, alongside introducing a 12-month National Insurance relief to eligible employers recruiting veterans in their first civilian role after service.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Plymouth, Moor View answering member printed Johnny Mercer question first answered 15/04/2024 16:58:47 answering member 4485 label Biography information for Johnny Mercer
