<p>For Personal Independence Payment (PIP) initial decisions made in the period 1<sup>st</sup> July 2016 to 30<sup>th</sup> June 2022 there were 595,500 Mandatory Reconsideration (MR) outcomes where the total points score was the same as that at the initial decision. This equates to 73% of the decided MRs relating to those initial decisions. For some cases, points scores are missing from the data and so these have not been included.</p><p> </p><p>Please note:</p><p> </p><ul><li>This is unpublished data. It should be used with caution and it may be subject to future revision.</li><li>Figures are rounded to the nearest 100 and percentages to the nearest percent.</li><li>We have provided data for England and Wales (excluding Scotland) in line with the latest published figures on PIP.</li><li>This data covers initial decisions following a PIP assessment only (New Claims or DLA Reassessments) between 1<sup>st</sup> July 2016 and 30<sup>th</sup> June 2022, the latest period for which data is available. It does not include applications which end before an assessment (for example, due to failure to return required paperwork or attend an assessment) or decisions made at an Award Review or Change of Circumstance.</li><li>Figures do not include cases which are classified as Special Rules for Terminal Illness (SRTI) at either initial decision or MR stage.</li></ul><ul><li>These figures include information on MR related to those initial decisions which were decided by 30<sup>th</sup> September 2022, the latest date for which published data is available. Note that more MRs could be made and completed after September 2022, so numbers may change. Only completed MRs where a decision was made are included in these figures. Withdrawn/Cancelled MR have been excluded.</li><li>Comparison was based on total points score at each stage – that is, the sum of Daily Living and Mobility score elements. This means that scores against individual descriptors could have changed, but with zero net effect.</li></ul>
