Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people were not notified of the outcome of a personal independence payment assessment or a change in the level of their awards owing to recent IT faults; and what steps have been taken to prevent recurrence of those faults.
We have no record of any Departmental IT failures for Personal Independence Payment in the last 12 months that have resulted in assessment decision notifications not being issued to claimants.
