I doubt that Data Protection would allow it but I am also not sure what value there would be, the DVLA do not hold detailed medical information and the reasons that someone would be unable to drive would not necessarily have any relevance to their meeting the PIP criteria.

I'm sorry but I don't see any relevance in your post to the OP's question so I am not going to allow it.

It's not really anything to do with the benefit, it's all about inter-agency data sharing and the need to only share data that is legally required to be shared.
