Responding to the Government's Green Paper

This week, the Government published a Green Paper and a consultation about changes to disability benefits. First things first, it is important to know that Green Papers do not set out final decisions. They are a way for the Government to explore options and get people’s views before developing the final changes. The proposals in this Green Paper and the timeline for when they will happen may change.
Scope are closely following the consultation process and will keep our website updated with the latest information as we get it.
The Pathways to Work Green Paper includes proposed changes to Universal Credit, Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Employment and Support Allowance (ESA). Here is everything you need to know about proposed changes which could start from next year.
