The way people with physical and mental illnesses receive help is set to change
People who receive Personal Independence Payments from the Department for Work and Pensions could face tougher eligibility criteria under proposed reforms announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in a speech on Friday .
Mr Sunak announced that a consultation would be launched in the coming days, to work out how the PIP system could move towards "a more objective and rigorous approach that focuses support on those with the greatest needs and extra costs". The Prime Minister said: "We need to match the support people need to the actual conditions they have and help people live independently and remove the barriers they face. But we need to look again at how we do this through Personal Independence Payments, I worry about it being misused. Now its purpose is to contribute to the extra costs people face as they go about their daily lives."
