Two groups of people most-likely to get ‘indefinite’ award for new claim of Adult Disability Payment
New statistics from Social Security Scotland show that at the end of July, some 314,495 people were in receipt of Adult Disability Payment (ADP), the devolved benefit that has now replaced all new claims for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) north of the border. Of that total figure, 115,035 (37%) were new applicants and 199,460 (63%) had their PIP award transferred from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
