Extends eligibility explicitly to include people with an enduring (ongoing) and substantial disability which causes them, during the course of a journey, to:

  • Be unable to walk;
  • Experience very considerable difficulty whilst walking,

which may include very considerable psychological distress; or

  • Be at risk of serious harm whilst walking, or pose, whilst

walking, a risk of serious harm to any other person

The new criteria (England only)

What are we doing?

  • Liaising with GOV.UK about amendments to the start page/extra page to inform

the public about eligibility

  • 2 rounds of citizen usability testing

○ No one with automatic entitlement (PIP Descriptor E)

  • 1 round with Local Authorities via a survey

○ Survey analysis has resulted in further iterations to the prototype

  • Reviewing the “guidance” document to improve its readability

○ it is currently 126 pages with 45,000+ words

  • Working with the four Nations to determine if Policy could be aligned (doubtful)
  • Build it!

LA API Feedback

  • Last two API endpoints now built from the Alpha backlog

○ ‘Transfer badge’ and ‘Update badge details’

  • We'll be updating the API to accommodate the new criteria

○ currently doing it for Organisation applications

  • API versioning

○ provides governance ○ allows 3rd party suppliers a window to accommodate breaking changes ○ now on V2 (since 15 July) with V1 remaining available until the 12 August

  • Implemented changes to API based on LA feedback and analytics

○ changes need to be implemented by 3rd parties to benefit from changes

This is what we have achieved

  • A service that meets needs

○ four nations with one solution

  • Developed an API to facilitate the use of Case Management Systems
  • Integrations with GOV.UK services (Pay and Notify)
  • DWP buy in
  • HMPO data sharing links being discussed
  • Meaningful analytics… which we act upon

○ hypothesis driven development
