Notes on the dataset

How CPI uprating works

Each September the ONS publishes that month's Consumer Prices Index. The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions then applies that figure to most working-age benefits the following April. PIP is one of the benefits inside the statutory uprating; in years with negative CPI (none in the 10-year window) rates are frozen rather than cut.
