Question to the Leader of the House:
To ask the Leader of the House, when she plans to provide parliamentary time for the House to debate the Pathways to Work Green Paper.
This question was answered on 16th May 2025
The House has had a number of opportunities to discuss the Pathways to Work Green Paper, including:
- An Oral Statement by the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions on 18th March following its publication, lasting around 2 hours;
- An Urgent Question on 27th March regarding PIP Changes: Impact on Carer’s Allowance; and
- A Westminster Hall Debate on 7th May regarding Personal Independence Payment: Disabled People.
I am committed to providing time in the Chamber to the Backbench Business Committee and I would encourage the Hon. Member to apply for a debate through the Committee if they so wish. In addition, Members will have the opportunity to debate reform of the health and disability benefits system when measures are brought forward in due course.
