We're certainly going to be looking fairly at how these decisions are being made, and the question of fiscal sustainability for the benefit is going to be a concern as we reach these decisions.
The end of the scheme comes alongside significant steps we've already taken to help people into work.
We've provided extensive tailored support to ensure the most vulnerable customers are supported on every step of their journey.
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.
