Rejected petition Put doctors back in charge of Atos assessments

More details

We call upon the government to compel Atos Healthcare to replace its current tick-box disability assessment system with one in which disabled claimants are properly assessed by qualified doctors as, indeed, was the case before Atos were appointed.

The current system is demonstrably unfair and arbitrary.
