Rejected petition change the eligibility for PIP, or how entitlements to PIP are assessed

Change the process on how PiP assessments are handled or are completed. Change the eligibility for applying

More details

A lot of people struggle to get their entitlement to PiP because they don’t have a confirmed title to their illness. This doesn’t mean their struggle or pain isn’t real.
The process for applying needs to change to make it easier and encourage more people who are in genuine need of PIP to apply. The horror stories published put people off of applying.
Also if somebody has a chronic condition diagnosed - the time scale for PIP should be indefinite with review every 10 years
