PIP and ESA Assessments

Non-inquiry session

The Work and Pensions Committee held a one-off evidence session with organisations representing and supporting disabled people through the PIP and ESA assessment processes.

This was a chance for the Committee to:

- Understand the progress that has been made since the previous Committee reported on PIP and ESA assessments in 2018;

- Understand what reforms are needed, and whether these can be accomplished within the existing assessment systems;

- Explore the implications of DWP’s proposed reforms to the processes, via the Health Transformation Programme.
