While the government says claimants should only be judged able to walk more than 20 metres if they can do so "reliably, repeatedly, safely and in a timely manner", they have not given this qualification legal force by including it in the regulations. Without this, and with Atos and Capita responsible for PIP assessments, I fear we will face a repeat of the suffering, hardship and clogged appeals process associated with the notorious work capability assessment.
