Social Security Benefits: Reform
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the (a) scope and (b) planned timeline is for her Department’s planned benefit reforms in 2025.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
We are committed to reforming the system of health and disability benefits so that it promotes and enables employment among as many people as possible. The system must also work to support disabled people to live independently. It is also vital to ensure that the system is financially sustainable in the long term.
We are working to develop proposals for reform to the system of health and disability benefits and will set them out in a green paper in the spring.
