Sarah Dyke

Liberal Democrat — Glastonbury and Somerton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 June 2025

Debate

Disabled People in Poverty

Contribution

My constituent in Langport, Samantha, is a recipient of personal independence payment. She had treatment for endometritis and is struggling with cancer. Her PIP review was submitted in 2024. It comprised 100 pages of evidence—an onerous process that took six weeks to complete—and she is still awaiting a decision. Does the hon. Gentleman recognise my concern that the Government’s intention to make what is already a burdensome process more challenging will discriminate against the most vulnerable in our society?
