Carer's Allowance: call for evidence

This call for evidence is aimed at organisations and individuals who have information that is relevant to how Carer’s Allowance could be modernised, including through an earnings taper, the role of the earnings rules and how they operate in practice.

The Review welcomes evidence and insight from individuals and organisations with lived or learned experience, knowledge and expertise. Evidence can take many forms and could include written submissions, existing data or unpublished analysis or reports.

This call for evidence is available in accessible versions including British Sign Language (BSL), Easy Read, audio, Braille, large print and Welsh translation.

To request a Braille version or physical copies of other accessible versions of this call for evidence, email us at [email protected]

If you would like to send an attachment or find out about other ways to respond (for example, by audio), email us at [email protected]

You can also use this email address to respond to the call for evidence if your response exceeds the maximum character limit of the online form.

You can submit a video in BSL to [email protected]

The Department for Work and Pensions will analyse and summarise responses and may use artificial intelligence to assist with the handling of responses – this will be under human oversight and will not replace human judgement in the consideration of evidence.
