DWP To Trial Audio Recording Of Selected Assessments From April

March 2, 2017

Many thanks to campaigner Gail Ward for sharing the following with us:

Maybe, soon, all assessments will be recorded, and claimants won’t need to ask for this.

    This would be great progress. Having had 2 PIP assessments I can attest to the contract and quality between them. 1 very reasonable, the second shockingly inaccurate and filled with personal bias. The sooner they are all recorded, the better.

    I always record everything and put on all forms ALL VERBAL COMMUNICATION WIL BE AUDIO RECORDED AND the WILL BE is double underlined. They are told beforehand I will be recording because if it comes to a tribunal I want it all on paper. The sooner they realise the only way is recording the better it should be for those attending and having home assessments. ESA or PIP they should all be recorded and sent with the paperwork to the decision makers. So what if they get through only a fraction of the decisions a week! Do they, DM’s, actually think the full reply to a question is just a few bloody words? DM’s should be made to listen to the discs as well as the written evidence! Corrupt HP’s should be weeded out and reported, not only be the claimant but the DWP as well.

    It shouldn’t be MAYBE all assessments will be recorded they should ALL be recorded in the pusuit of truth and justice. They cannot offer it to all as they would be outed as the liars we know them to be. This is just damage limitation,if they record a selected few they can afford to pay out the benefits that are justly due but cannot afford to pay everyone (so they say) their high wages are NOT justifiable but the benefits claimed ARE.
