The information requested is not available.
Detailed statistics on PIP can be found on Stat-Xplore. The department holds data on a range of conditions. However, these are not collected in a way that allows them to be defined as untreatable. You can view the disability categories here.
Guidance on how to use Stat-Xplore can be found here.

Named day questions only occur in the House of Commons. The MP tabling the question specifies the date on which they should receive an answer. MPs may not table more than five named day questions on a single day.
