Rejected petition Introduce legislation to ensure that all PIP assessments are recorded.
There is overwhelming evidence that there is an alarming level of disparity between what occurs in a PIP assessment and what ATOS/Capita assessors send to DWP decision makers. There are also evidenced concerns around claiming well-being and safety during assessments and the appeals process.
