MHK says current system is 'very onerous'
An MHK wants to see more 'common sense' applied to the application process for Disability Living Allowance.
Douglas North member David Ashford will ask Treasury Minister Alex Allinson what plans there are to review the period for which the payment is made before individuals have to reapply when the House of Keys sits next week.
Mr Ashford says he's had members of the public ask him for help completing the renewal forms due to the complexity of the paperwork.
He's keen to see the system simplified:
Government consultations need 'more objective and neutral' approach
Applications open for role on planning committee
Survey finds half of businesses expect to make cutbacks or redundancies in 2026
Braddan Commissioners appeals for information after tyres fly-tipped on Marine Drive
Allinson: Government responding to calls over MiCard system
