Motability: Disability Living Allowance and Personal Independence Payment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether he will take steps to amend the social security payment regulations to enable the direct transfer of (a) Personal Independence Payment and (b) Disability Living Allowance to competitors to Motability.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
Motability Foundation is independent of government and regulated by the Charity Commission so is responsible for the terms and the administration of the Scheme.
The department works closely with Motability and is responsible for the disability benefits that provide a passport to the Motability Scheme. We will continue to ensure the Scheme meets the transport needs of disabled people.
