These Regulations contain transitional provisions for the phasing out of the benefit known as disability living allowance (“DLA”) and its replacement by the new benefit provided for in the Welfare Reform Act 2012 known as personal independence payment (“PIP”). In particular they provide for the Secretary of State to invite people entitled to DLA (“a DLA entitled person”) to transfer to PIP and for them to lose their entitlement to DLA if they do not do so. The Regulations also enable people entitled to DLA to transfer to PIP voluntarily.
