Award those on the autistic spectrum & with Asperger's the standard rate of PIP

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Many people, including my husband with Asperger's Syndrome or on the autistic spectrum are being declined standard rate PIP despite originally getting DLA.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

If you'd like people who were entitled to DLA to be automatically entitled to the standard rate of PIP, without a further assessment, you could start a new petition asking for that change.
