The plans could cut benefits by up to £5,000 annually for hundreds of thousands, with stricter conditions for claimants.
The government currently spends £65 billion on sickness benefits, with costs projected to rise significantly. Despite the promise of reform, doubts remain about the effectiveness of these measures, as previous attempts at welfare cuts have not succeeded.
