DWP explains new changes to PIP decision making process for claimants

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has denied hopes of changes with regards to how its Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is delivered - knocking back an online petition calling for updates.

The petition itself, which has received more than 11,300 signatures of support has been posted on the petitions-parliament website, and targets changes to how the DWP go about their application process.

The official response from the DWP was triggered following the petition surpassing the 10,000 signature threshold - and at 100,000 signatures, it will be considered for debate in Parliament itself.
