Rejected petition Change the PIP process to enable faster decision making
The PIP process currently is not fit for purpose. Those people who apply for PIP should not still be waiting from 10 months after application to have a decision on whether the claim is successful or not
More details
The whole process is very stressful and lengthy waiting and no communication has a detrimental impact to the most vulnerable in our society. In a civilised society it is the Governments responsibility to ensure that the disabled or disadvantaged in our society have the help they need in order to exist in society. The complaints procedure should also be overhauled to ensure complaints can be made and are followed up
