That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill because it fails to provide a fair and compassionate approach to reforming disability benefits; is not accompanied by a credible strategy for ensuring that people with disabilities who are able to work receive personalised and effective support into employment; does not include measures that have been developed together with people with disabilities and carers, or informed by robust evidence and consultation; contains measures that an impact assessment conducted by the Department for Work and Pensions forecasts will bring an additional 250,000 people, including 50,000 children, into relative poverty; will have a disproportionate impact on individuals with fluctuating, mental health, or non-visible conditions, who may struggle to meet narrow functional descriptors despite experiencing profound barriers to daily living and mobility; and because its provisions have not been designed to uphold the dignity, independence and security of people who rely on the welfare system.
Siân Berry
Carla Denyer
Ellie Chowns
Adrian Ramsay
Jeremy Corbyn
That this House, while noting the need to change the rates of benefits to people in need of State support and welcoming the much-needed increase in the standard rate of Universal Credit, declines to give a Second Reading to the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill, because it does not contain any proven and effective measures to improve employment support beyond what Personal Independence Payment (PIP) achieves for many disabled people, and which should be implemented alongside any changes to benefits; it contains dangerous and counterproductive cuts to entitlements aimed at disabled people, rather than proposing a framework which would facilitate all disabled people getting adequate financial and other support to thrive in society; it fails to reform PIP to make it more effective as a means of supporting employed people in work; it lacks measures to take proper account of the needs of people with severe fluctuating long-term conditions, including serious mental ill-health; it does not contain measures to improve the support from health services and local social services given to disabled people; it will lead to many unpaid carers no longer being eligible for Carer’s Allowance because the person they care for no longer qualifies for PIP; it has not been subject to full impact assessments; and it does not contain proposals to proactively work with disabled people to co-produce changes to the welfare system that will treat those in need of social security with dignity and respect.

That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill because the Government’s own impact assessment has concluded that the measures in this Bill would push 250,000 people, including 50,000 children into poverty, because with around half of all children in poverty in Scotland living in a household with a disabled person, these measures threaten to undermine the progress being made by the Scottish Government to reduce poverty and child poverty through an approach with dignity, fairness and respect at its centre, because these reforms will be hugely damaging to some of the most vulnerable people across the UK who rely on social security support, particularly during the ongoing cost of living crisis, and because this Bill and the cuts to disabled people’s benefits that it would enable stand in stark contrast to the Government’s election manifesto promises that there would be no return to austerity under a Labour Government and that the Government would be committed to championing the rights of disabled people and to ensuring that their views and voices will be at the heart of all the Government does.

That this House, while acknowledging that the amount of money currently having to be spent on welfare is too high, declines to give a Second Reading to the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill because it does not introduce fair reforms to sustainably and effectively support more people into work; it makes it harder for disabled people who are already employed to remain in work, by cutting Personal Independence Payment, which covers help with essential daily tasks such as washing and preparing meals; because it withdraws support for people who are simply unable to work due to chronic health issues or disabilities; because it will remove Carers Allowance from 150,000 unpaid carers, whose tireless work supports some of the most vulnerable in society and fills the gaps of health and care systems; because cutting support for disabled people will worsen the cost pressures facing the NHS, social care and local government, likely resulting in a false economy; because it does nothing to tackle the root causes of the rising welfare bill, including chronic ill-health, young people’s mental ill-health and the crisis in the NHS and social care; because it comes at a time when disabled people’s income is being stretched by high energy, heating and food costs; and because according to the Government’s own impact assessment, it will lead to an additional 250,000 people, including 50,000 children, falling into poverty by 2029-30.

That this House, whilst noting the need for the reform of the social security system, and agreeing with the Government’s principles for providing support to people into work and protecting people who cannot work, declines to give a Second Reading to the Universal Credit and Personal Independent Payment Bill because its provisions have not been subject to a formal consultation with disabled people, or co-produced with them, or their carers; because the Office for Budget Responsibility is not due to publish its analysis of the employment impact of these reforms until the autumn of 2025; because the majority of the additional employment support funding will not be in place until the end of the decade; because while acknowledging protection for current claimants, the Government has yet to produce its own impact assessment on the impact of future claimants of Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Universal Credit limited capability for work and related activity and the number of people, including children, who will fall into poverty or experience worsening mental or physical health as a result, nor how many carers will lose carers allowance; because the Government has not published an assessment of the impact of these reforms on health or care needs; and because the Government is still awaiting the findings of the Minister for Social Security and Disability’s review into the assessment for PIP and Sir Charlie Mayfield’s independent review into the role of employers and government in boosting the employment of disabled people and people with long-term health conditions.

Backbench Business
Financial redress for 1950s women impacted by Department for Work and Pensions maladministration of State Pension age changes
Rebecca Long Bailey [R]
That this House notes the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman’s (PHSO) report on Women’s State Pension Age, HC 638, published in March 2024, which found that maladministration in the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) communication about the 1995 Pensions Act resulted in complainants losing opportunities to bemake informed decisions about some things and to do some things differently, and diminished their sense of personal autonomy and financial control; further notes that there will likely be a significant number of women born in the 1950s who have suffered injustice because of maladministration in DWP’s communication about the 1995 Pensions Act; and also notes that, given the scale of the impact of DWP’s maladministration, and the urgent need for a remedy, the PSHO took the rare but necessary step of asking Parliament to intervene, laying their report before Parliament under s10(3) Parliamentary Commissioner Act and asked Parliament to identify a mechanism for providing appropriate remedy for those who have suffered injustice.
