The review has resulted in thousands of claimants losing their payments
The Department for Work and Pension has stripped a whopping 220,000 people of their Personal Independence Payments following an assessment. The hardline approach saw their personal details reviewed by the DWP.
And the end result was more than 200,000 people losing their PIP allowance. People can receive PIP if they struggle to complete certain daily tasks because of a medical condition. How much they receive depends on the severity of their condition and how much it impacts their life. The assessments can happen if a claimant notifies the DWP of a change of circumstances automatically at the end of a period set when they were first awarded the payments. This can understandably be an uncertain period for people anxious their support could be stopped. One in five of all of these reviews - 20 per cent - saw PIP stopped because they no longer met the requirements deemed necessary by the DWP.
