Labour — East Ham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 May 2025

Debate

Personal Independence Payment: Disabled People

Contribution

I would be happy to talk to my hon. Friend about the details of that particular case. I think the threshold we have set is the right place to set the eligibility criteria in the future. I am happy to discuss that point specifically. Our goal is a system that is financially sustainable in the long term so that it can be there for all of us who need it in the future.
