PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Personal Independence Payment: Appeals (6 July 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people and what proportion of people who have been awarded a Personal Independence Payment (PIP) by the first tier tribunal are not entitled to PIP at the end of their award.

Asked by:
Sir Mark Tami (Labour)

Answer

The information requested is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.

A claimant can lodge an appeal at the First-tier Tribunal (FtT) either for disallowance decisions, or when they have been awarded and continue to appeal for a higher award.
