Are there any documents available yet about PIP and AA and the pension age rise?

The PIP ADM has been updated https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/562475/admp1.pdf

“Age
P1013

To be entitled to PIP for the first time a claimant must be
1. age 16 or over and
2. the relevant age of
2.1 under age 65 or
2.2 under pensionable age, whichever is the higher and
3. not in receipt of DLA.
Note: See ADM Chapter P4 for guidance on exceptions to entitlement for upper age
condition. “

For the DWP websites I guess they’ll just replace ‘65’ with ‘state pension age’
