I heard just before Xmas that in spite of evidence(medical and visual) that I am unable to mobilise more than 50 metres(either once and definitely not repeatedly) without severe discomfort and exhaustion I have been moved out of the support group and into the WRAG. I have sent off an appeal letter already, but have so far been unable to see the report of the assessment. I have asked for this. Should I be able to do so, I will obviously contest anything in it that says contrary to the above, but what do I do if there is no reference to my mobility difficulties? I had a successful tribunal hearing last year because of glaring omissions in the assessment report.Is there any guidance about challenging/tackling omissions as opposed to inaccuracies on the site? Thank you.
An omission is not really any different from a discrepancy. It's still of the form "I said" vs "you said".
If you have provided evidence that you are unable to mobilse 50m and there are no references to this in the reports, then you are entitled to challenge the ATOS "doctor" and the DWP Decision Maker as to why they have ignored this evidence.
Good luck
