PIP Consultation

In April 2012, We are Spartacus provided a full response to the Government’s consultation on the assessment criteria and process for Personal Independence Payment (PIP), which, under the Welfare Reform Act will replace Disability Living Allowance (DLA) from April 2013.

Due to the method used to construct the document, we regret that we have not been able to make our response available in alternative formats.

During the period of the PIP consultation, we produced a number of documents and downloads to help people understand and respond to the consultation themselves and to raise awareness of the Government plans for PIP:
