Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people in each parliamentary constituency who have been reassessed for personal independence payments or disability living allowance have lost the higher rate mobility allowance.

The latest available data on personal independence payment (PIP) claims in payment, registrations, clearances and awards for both new claims and reassessed claims (for those previously in receipt of disability living allowance (DLA)) are published on Gov.UK: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/personal-independence-payment-statistics. In particular, breakdowns of reassessed claims in payment by type and rate of awards, at Great Britain, Regional, Parliamentary Constituency and Local Authority level, can be found at https://stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/

Guidance on how to use Stat-Xplore can be found here: https://sw.stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/webapi/online-help/index.html.

The Department does not have verified data on the number of PIP claimants who lost the higher rate mobility allowance as a result of the move to PIP. We intend to provide more detailed breakdowns of DLA to PIP reassessment outcomes in due course. The Department is working to guidelines set by the UK Statistics Authority to ensure we are able to publish statistics that meet high quality standards at the earliest opportunity.
