MORE than 600 disabled people in Barrow have taken the Government to tribunal over benefit payments and two-thirds won, figures show. Disability charities say that the latest data proves the Government’s assessment process is not fit for purpose, with Scope calling for a radical rehaul of the system. Between April 2013 and the end of 2020, the Department of Work and Pensions assessed 6,290 applications for Personal Independence Payment from people in the area – 66 per cent resulted in an award being granted. The benefit – which is not means tested – covers the additional expenses faced by those with disabilities and is worth between £23 and £150 a week, depending on an individual s needs.
