Just called Capita to request a copy of the HCP's report of my wife's recent assessment.
After a short while listening to the music!!!! the capita representative got back to me and told me that id have to apply to the data protection team in Wales to obtain a copy! We live in the east midlands so normally have to deal with the Birmingham office ( we got Belfast) so wasn't expecting this.

Ok so I need to know if this is correct or are we being deliberately delayed by the system?

I asked for a phone number for the wales office but they were unable to give me that!

Has anyone else experienced this tactic or is this now the correct procedure which I was totally unaware of. The last time we needed the PA4 report we informed the DWP and it duly came without any fuss!

You need to make the request to the DWP and not the Assessment Provider.

Thanks for that, as I was driving back to work that suddenly hit me which explains why the representative stalled when I asked!
Ok back to square one and the DWP tomorrow :S

I had my pip medical on Thursday 26th april, I requested a copy of the assessment from the dwp by phone on the following Monday 30th april, they said it would be sent out, at the time of writing tuesday 22nd may, I still have not received a copy, should I have sent the request in writing? mind you having said that, I haven't received a decision from the dwp either.

You've replied to a post from over two years ago!

You can write to them but it will be quicker to phone them again.
