Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, when she plans to implement the changes to the Work Capability Assessment set out in the Government's report, Improving Lives: The Future of Health, Work and Disability, Cm. 9526, published in November 2017.

We are committed to assessing people with health conditions and disabilities fairly and accurately, helping people to access the right support. We recognise the importance of getting reform in this area right. We therefore intend to focus on testing new approaches to build our evidence base for future reform. In the Improving Lives: The Future of health, Work and Disability command paper we committed to work with external stakeholders to inform future changes to the Work Capability Assessment.
