Thank you for your advice Gordon. I applied for PIP this morning.
For the benefit of other claimants:
1) it seems they may not ask the questions on p18. The lady I spoke to was very vague and didn't seem to know what I was talking about, she 'didn't have the PIP 1 form in front of her';
2) I spoke to the DWP later and was told that, if they have it, they will always send copies of DLA evidence used for previous applications on request, a formal Subject Access Request is not required, as long as the caller can pass the security questions; and
3) if you have submitted evidence for an ESA assessment though, you *may* have to ask for that separately.
This may help others.
Thanks again. I await the PIP 2!
