What the petition asks
We call for legal deadlines to be set for the NHS to provide medical reports for DWP tribunals. Delays can cause unfair outcomes. We think this would ensure efficiency and accountability in the tribunal process, and that this would promote just decisions and improved DWP practices.
Petition for the Government to set legal deadlines for the NHS to provide medical reports for DWP tribunals. We think that delays can impede fair tribunal outcomes, and that this reform is essential to ensure justice, support vulnerable individuals, and uphold the integrity of tribunal processes. We believe it would promote efficiency, fairness, and accountability, which we think would foster a more equitable system for all.
