Sir Stephen Timms: “This interim report delivers a clear message: while PIP is widely valued as a benefit, it is not working as intended and…”

The end of the scheme comes alongside significant steps we've already taken to help people into work.

We need to examine how Pip can respond to the rising number of people seeking support and whether it adequately reflects the diverse reality and needs of disabled people today.

We are committed to making changes so that Pip can fulfil its purpose for disabled people and those with long-term conditions, both now and into the future.

Our message is simple: Pip is not working. It is not working for the people that go through the process, nor for a government committed to supporting disabled people.
