Written Question
Social Security Benefits: Children
Wednesday 8th May 2024

Asked by: Oliver Heald (Conservative - North East Hertfordshire)

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many claims for (a) Disability Living Allowance and (b) the Personal Independence Payment were made for children in the last 12 months.

Answered by Mims Davies - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

There were 199,000 new claims made in the last 12 months (Apr 2023 to March 2024 inclusive), for DLA Child in Great Britain. This figure includes claims made under normal rules and special rules, rounded to the nearest 1,000. The figure is sourced from unpublished internal data, and therefore have been quality assured to a different standard compared to official data publications by DWP.

The latest available data on Personal Independence Payment claims can be found here. The requested data can be found in the ‘PIP Clearances’ dataset by going to ‘Age (bands and single year)’ and selecting the relevant age range.

Children are not eligible to claim PIP until they are 16 years old. Disability Living Allowance (DLA) is available for those under 16.

Guidance on how to use Stat-Xplore can be found here. An account is not required to use Stat- Xplore, the ‘Guest Login’ feature gives instant access to the main functions.
