Friday 27 June 2025

The government’s consultation on some of the changes announced in the Pathways for Work disability reform green paper closes on Monday 30 June.

You can respond to the government’s consultation online.

The main change, which we’re also campaigning against, is to limit payments of the Universal Credit health element to adults aged 22 and over. If you are limited for time, we urge you to answer question 11 on this topic.

Question 12 is about raising the age at which young adults move from Disability Living Allowance (DLA) to Personal Independence Payment (PIP) from 16 to 18. We recommended giving families the options of claiming at 16 or delaying for up to two years.

Read our consultation response to questions 11 and 12, on this topic.

And respond to the government’s consultation online by 30 June 2025.
