The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will review the current set of questions on the Disability Living Allowance for children claim form.

Answered by Sir Stephen Timms

There are currently no plans to review the Disability Living Allowance claim form (DLA1).

The questions on the claim form are intended to gather sufficient information from parents/guardians to accurately award children and young people the appropriate Disability Living Allowance award.
