PIP Tribunal - late submissiion due to advisor

Hi again,

my Tribunal date has been set for the end of the month but my advisor - who wanted to wait for the date before getting together to write my submission - can't see me until a week before the actual tribunal. By the time he gets the submission written up and posted second class it will arrive only a couple of days before the tribunal.

Is this OK? The tribunal letter setting the date says that any evidence should be received a week beforehand to give them time to review it. I'm concerned that my advisor seems to be working around his own timetable rather than that of the tribunal - he also put in my actual appeal form late which turned out to be OK but I was not impressed!

I could do the submission myself - I think my understanding of the case is better than my advisors anyway - I don't know.

thanks

holes

OK thanks it's good to have it spelled out clearly.

What about the submission itself - independent of any evidence, is there a 7 day deadline on that or is my Representative right in saying that it doesn't matter?
