1.5 million UK citizens could be out of the disability benefit net soon, new bill proposes drastic changes in eligibility criteria

Under the new guidelines, the ‘daily living’ element of the benefit effectively will get harder to claim after the eligibility criteria are tightened. All applicants will receive points according to their ability limitations for each activity.
