flag UK government scraps PIP voucher plan but proceeds with reforms affecting 370,000 by 2029/30.

flag The UK government has scrapped plans to replace Personal Independence Payment (PIP) with vouchers, but will still push ahead with PIP reforms that could affect 370,000 existing claimants by 2029/30, potentially removing the daily living component of the benefit. flag Critics argue the changes could harm the health of affected individuals and push them into poverty, while the government faces mounting pressure to revise its welfare cuts plans. flag Appeals against PIP decisions are also facing long delays, with over 8,900 cases pending.
