Improve the assessment element of Personal Independence Payment

Closed 38 signatures

What the petition asks

Assessors training and knowledge is too generalised.
A common complaint with PIP assessments is that assessors cannot be trusted to record accurately what took place during the assessment.
Assessors also deal with a wide range of conditions and are not specialist to each individual condition.
