Review Of The Disability Living Allowance Advisory Board

This review, published 19 November 2007, looks at the Disability Living Allowance Advisory Board (DLAAB).

The DLAAB is a Non-Departmental Public Body (NDPB) and was established in 1992. Its responsibilities are to:

• give advice to the Secretary of State for Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) on any matters he may refer to them for consideration
• give advice to doctors working for the Department on any case or question they refer to the Board
• produce an annual report of the Board’s activities

The report recommends that the Disability Living Allowance Advisory Board (DLAAB) should be refocused to offer advice across all benefits.
