TIMMS REVIEW - FOCUS ONLY ON DISABILITY COSTS

Is it true that the Timms Review will focus only on disability costs, and lists the items which might be claimed for. This would leave people with even severe mental health conditions with nothing.

If this were the only focus, there would be no assessment and just a form to fill in on what costs someone has probably with receipts. And no assessment as to how their conditions affects their ability to live daily life? I have heard elsehwere that the costs part is only to be a section of the overall assessment?

It is so confusing and worrying for people who have mostly chronic mental health conditions.

    Nothing has been confirmed yet @axab43😊

    They're still at a stage where things are being looked at and challenged by the upcoming recommendation shaping workshops so nothing is set in stone at the moment.
