WORK AND PENSIONS – FACE-TO-FACE ASSESSMENTS OF PIP CLAIMANTS - 30 June 2025

Sir Julian Lewis: Does the Secretary of State agree that, while necessary at the time of covid, the removal of the requirement for face-to-face assessments was an opening of the door to potential abuse? If so, will she commit in principle to the reinstatement of face-to-face assessments?

[The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions (Liz Kendall): That is exactly what we committed to in our Green Paper.]
