Personal Independence Payment: Neurodiversity
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of proposals to reform the Personal Independence Payment on (a) adults with (i) ADHD and (ii) autism and (b) other neurodivergent adults.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
Information on the impacts of the Pathways to Work Green Paper will be published in due course. The Government is determined to improve the low current employment rate among neurodivergent adults.
A further programme of analysis to support development of the proposals in the Green Paper will be developed and undertaken in the coming months.
