Philip Davies – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Work and Pensions

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Philip Davies on 2016-09-02.

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the current processing time from application to award for personal independence payments.

Penny Mordaunt

The current processing times represent a stable position for both DWP and our Assessment Providers and reflect the significant progress made to improve the claims process by both parties over the preceding months. We continue to look at all of our processes and activities to identify any further areas for improvement, or to drive out even greater efficiency.
