The Department for Work and Pensions is reforming the Work Capability Assessment (WCA) system used to determine eligibility for disability benefits, including changes to assessment procedures, timescales, and the Personal Independence Payment scheme. The reform addresses longstanding concerns about assessment accuracy and access, with recent focus on recording requirements and the WorkWell expansion programme. Current status involves active legislative proposals including the Disability Benefit Assessments (Recording) Bill and ongoing consultation on legacy benefits abolition.
