Notes

1. The Scottish Parliament has prohibited the outsourcing of medical assessments for Scottish devolved benefits (which include PIP): Social Security (Scotland) Act 2018, ss 12 and 13.

2. Any ‘Matthew’ effect is likely to vary between different systems. It seems to be fairly pronounced in the SEND context, although empirical investigation is required.
