Hi Gareth

My completely uneducated guess is that this is an a**e covering exercise for the delays that will undoubtedly occur when transfers begin in earnest later in the month, it looks like it gives the DWP freedom to call claimants late if "resources" are not available.

I agree with G, in that it is an axxx covering exercise, probably down to the fact that ATOS/Capita do not have the promised resources to carry out the projected level of assessments.

Discussed further here on rightsnet :

See my associated post in The PIP topic thread in the Spotlight Area at the top of the forum :

I am locking this topic to stop it developing into a discussion.

This map shows areas that will be assessed for PIP as planned. Capita areas only, it appears (and even then, not all of them).

Totally agree Gordon.

BTW. Have you seen this : www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/news/2416-clai...of-fraud-dwp-decides

Totally unlawful in my opinion, as no doubt an application for Judicial Review by a claimant or their representative will prove.
