The below Parliamentary question was asked by Chris Ruane on 2014-04-08.

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what proportion of personal independence payment claimants faced travel times to assessments greater than 60 minutes; and what proportion of those claimants were mentally ill.

Mike Penning

The Department does not hold central records on claimants travelling time to a Personal Independence Payment consultation, nor is it gathered by health condition, this information could only be collated at disproportionate cost.
