Written question asked by Alex Sobel (Labour) on Monday, 13 November 2017, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 15 November 2017. It was answered by Sarah Newton (Conservative) on Tuesday, 21 November 2017 on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions.
Personal Independence Payment: West Yorkshire
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many personal independence payment applications from people with ME have been refused in West Yorkshire since 2013.
- Answer
-
The Department does not record disabling conditions of Personal Independence Payment (PIP) claimants at registration stage. Disabling conditions are recorded on the PIP Computer System only for those claimants who undergo a face to face or paper based assessment.
Therefore we are unable to provide the number of refused PIP applications which were made by people with ME.
