Madeleine Moon – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Ministry of Justice

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Madeleine Moon on 2016-05-18.

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the average cost is of a personal independence payment tribunal hearing.

Mr Shailesh Vara

The First-tier Tribunal (Social Entitlement Chamber) is administered by HM Courts & Tribunals Service. The Tribunal hears appeals against decisions of the Department for Work and Pensions on a range of benefits including personal independence payment (PIP).

HM Courts & Tribunals Service cannot isolate cost data relating to specific benefit types.
