Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many PIP claimants in Newton Abbot constituency had (a) an award with a mobility component, (b) a mobility component (i) removed and (ii) reduced following a (A) decision and (B) reassessment and (c) an active Motability agreement (1) terminated and (2) not renewed in each month since January 2024.

The figures requested have been provided in the attached tables. Regarding part (b), PIP claimants do not undergo reassessments, but they do have award reviews. Therefore, figures have been provided for the most recent decision made during the award reviews of claims (after mandatory reconsiderations and appeals have been completed).

Notes:

- Values have been rounded to the nearest 10.

- Figures provided are for claimants under DWP Policy Ownership (England, Wales or Abroad).

- Figures include both Normal Rules and Special Rules for End of Life claimants.

- A claimant's most recent award decision post-reconsideration or appeal at an award review was used to determine whether their mobility award had been reduced/removed.

- Despite a contract with Motability having ended, a claimant may make a new contract in the future.

- A Motability contract is considered to have ended if it has reached the natural end of its term. A Motability contract is considered to have been terminated if it was ended early for another reason.

- Motability contracts are terminated for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, voluntary termination, claimant death, a change in entitlement, imprisonment, or moving abroad.
