Ahead of a crucial vote on Tuesday, Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall unveiled a number of changes to the Government's welfare bill following a significant backbench revolt against the measure last week.
If the new bill is approved, the point-scoring system used at evaluations will be tightened, making it harder to claim Personal Independence Payment (PIP). The benefit, which is now distributed to 3.7 million people, is intended to assist with additional expenses associated with health or disability.
