Download or read book Disability Living Allowance reform written by Great Britain: Department for Work and Pensions and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-12-06 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government is committed to maintaining an extra-costs, non-means-tested disability benefit to support disabled people. Disability Living Allowance (DLA) has become confusing and complex and the Government proposes to introduce a new benefit, Personal Independence Payment (PIP), in 2013/14 when it will begin reassessing the working age (16-64 year olds) caseload. PIP will consider the impact an individual's impairment or health condition has on their daily lives. Support will be prioritised for those who face the greatest day-to-day challenges. PIP will have two components: "Mobility" - based on ability to get around; "Daily Living" - based on ability to carry out other key activities necessary to participate in daily life. The benefit will only be available to those with a long-term health condition or impairment, and individuals will have to qualify for a period of six months and be expected to continue to qualify for a further six months before an award can be made. There will be an objective assessment of individual need, with no automatic entitlement. The assessment is being developed in collaboration with a group of independent specialists in health, social care and disability, including disabled people. The Government is considering how best to take account of use of aids and adaptations, and how they are used and paid for. Awards will be reviewed periodically, but individuals will still be responsible for reporting any changes in circumstances. The feature of DLA entitling the individual to other help and support will be retained.

This book was released on 2005-06-16 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines how the Social Security Agency (Northern Ireland) applies the complex rules which affect eligibility for Disability Living Allowance (DLA). Despite progress since 1998 in reducing the volume of DLA claims held by the Agency and improved accuracy, there is still scope for further improvement. The speed of decisions has been adversely affected by several factors. There should be improvements in the training of frontline staff, and further improvements in information technology solutions. Fewer cases should be referred to the Agency's Medical Support Services. The identification of errors in decision-making by the Agency has improved, for example, through the use of the Periodic Enquiry process. There has been a significant increase in the number of appeals by claimants, since the decision-making procedures were changed in October 1999. Decision-makers should make more use of personal communication with claimants to collect initial or follow-up evidence, and this is especially important as DLA applicants are unlikely to have a detailed grasp of the disability eligibility rules. If the Agency aimed for a 10 per cent reduction in DLA / Attendance Allowance appeals the saving would be in excess of £190,000 per year.

Download or read book Government support towards the additional living costs of working-age disabled people written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Work and Pensions Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-02-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government's Welfare Reform Bill includes measures to introduce a new benefit in 2013: the Personal Independence Payment (PIP) will replace Disability Living Allowance (DLA) for working-age claimants, to help meet the additional living costs of disabled people. A new eligibility assessment process will also be brought in. But this report finds that the Government should not introduce Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessments nationally until it has satisfied itself, in the planned initial roll-out of the new assessment in a limited geographical area, that the assessment is empathetic and accurate. The report highlights a number of areas of concern. The current draft criteria on which the assessment will be based are still too reliant on a "medical model" of disability, and may fail to take sufficient account of the impact of social, practical and environmental factors, such as housing and access to public transport, on disabled people's ability to participate in society and the additional costs they therefore incur. The Committee believes that the Government should listen to the views of disabled people and their representative organisations and conduct a further trial before the criteria are adopted and the new assessment is introduced. Once the initial assessments for PIP have been completed in the first geographical area, the Government should look again at the value of face-to-face assessments for PIP claims where claimants' conditions are severe and unlikely to change. It is also important that DWP gets the contracting process with the private suppliers right.

Download or read book Diversity and Welfare Provision written by Lee Gregory and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2024-01-11 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognising diverse groups within society is a vital part of policy research and analysis, yet few texts have drawn together the breadth of experiences of welfare provision from a diverse group of citizens. This book fills this gap, by exploring how diverse citizens experience welfare provision. It aims to promote debate about the importance of social divisions in society and to address the gaps in research, in relation to race, ethnicity, disability, gender and LGBTQ+. It comes at a crucial time as we emerge out of a decade of austerity, a global pandemic and Brexit, where issues of diversity have been at the forefront of debates, and renews the call for analysis within social policy, particularly on issues of diversity in the 21st century context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This review, looking at disability employment support, and entitled "Getting in, staying in and getting on", seeks to ensure that disabled people have the opportunities and support needed to meet their employment aspirations. The focus of the review has set out a number of recommendations for employment support and the author has focused on three areas to promote this objective. (1) To set out the types of support that today's young disabled people will want in a future economy; (2) Enshrining the right to work objectives as set out in the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities; (3) To make a case for cross-Government work to unlock the big enablers of employment, that is "Getting in, staying in and getting on" , which includes raising the aspirations of what disabled people can achieve. For "getting in" this should include more disabled people doing apprenticeships, work experience and work placements; for "staying in" there should be better promotion for Access to Work for retension and for "getting on" there should be greater encouragement of disabled people in setting up businesses and gaining skills for career development. The publication is divided into 5 chapters, with appendices.

Download or read book Working futures? written by Roulstone, Alan and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2005-11-16 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working futures? looks at the current effectiveness and future scope for enabling policy in the field of disability and employment. By addressing the current strengths and weaknesses of disability and employment policy, the book asks Is the dichotomy of 'work for those who can and support for those who cannot' appropriate to the lives of disabled people? Does current and recent policy reduce or reinforce barriers to paid employment? What lessons from other welfare regimes can we draw on to further disabled people's working futures? The book is original in bringing together a wide range of policy insights to bear on the question of disabled people's working futures. It includes analyses of recent policy initiatives as diverse as the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, Draft Disability Bill, the benefits system, New Deal for Disabled People, job retention policy, comparative disability policy, the role of the voluntary sector and 'new policies for a new workplace'. Contributions from academics, NGOs, the OECD and the disabled peoples' movement bring multiple theoretical, professional and user perspectives to the debates at the heart of the book.
