Judicial Summary

1) When a tribunal in a PIP case is contemplating removing points previously awarded in circumstances where, if it does so, that will or may have a material impact upon the outcome it should send a signal that such is being contemplated. It is not able to justify avoiding doing so simply because the claimant has an experienced representative.
