Amber Rudd's announcement re PIP

Does this mean that all pensioners who currently receive PIP will be exempt from further assessments?

Hopefully, even if it just means filling in a form to say nothing has changed. Anything is better than another assessment and I don't envy the ones still having to transfer from DLA

C.C.L.

That's the way I see it, but I'll need a letter or some other confirmation before I'll believe it. Mine is due to be reassessed 'after December 2019' as my award runs out in January 2021 and I'm already dreading the assessment after the last one.

Nope it doesn't mean anything until it's been made official and that could take months.
