Proposed changes to PIP and other benefits

Bunny

In case anyone would like to read the Government's Green Paper with full details of the proposed changes (rather than relying only on media reports), it can be found here:

  • Sounds very scary for many. I posted this earlier in the general PIP thread, so admit to being just as confused... "Listening to the House of Commons announcement of benefits reform, and it's just been confirmed (if I haven't misunderstood) that scoring a minimum of 4 points in at least one PIP category will be the new standard as of next year. Does that mean that anyone who, prior to today, scored several 2s (for instance) will have their present PIP stopped prematurely? Bit confused by the implications. "
