You may be aware that IDS has been saying that under the last government 71% of people received DLA indefinitely without ever seeing anyone. Hence his demand for everyone to have face to face assessments under PIP. When I asked for a FOI requests I got the attached link which shows he was indeed correct, in part, based on a 5% sample of cases.

Please share in any way you can.
