What is the Milburn Review?

The Milburn Review is a new report suggesting changes to how severely disabled young people access benefits. Led by former Labour health secretary Alan Milburn, it highlights the difficulties 16 to 24-year-olds face with current assessment processes for benefits like PIP and Universal Credit. The review argues for faster, unconditional support for those with complex conditions who will likely never work.
