Planning and following a Journey - High Court

Hi Everyone,

Given the High Court Ruling, last month that the DWP were discriminatory to only allow up to 10 points on the Mobility Planning and following a Journey aspect does this mean if we scored 10 on it they will be lifting it to 12?

The news articles are not very clear to me: www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/...-scope-a8168496.html

Thanks in advance for any clarity

Hi Gordon,

Thank you for your reply, I am confused however as you are quoting form the test which was found unlawful and from reviewing the news stories from yesterday and the High Court McVey decision it "overturns moves by ministers last spring to stop people qualifying for enhanced payments within the mobility component of PIP for reasons of psychological distress.” If it is not the people who were locked at receiving 10 for psychological distress on the mobility aspect (thus prohibiting them obtaining the higher rate) then I am not sure who of 160k people wil the DWP will be writing to to issue back payments and correcting their assessments?
