Change in DWP appeal targets
Wed 12-May-04 10:27 AM

Apparently all DWP DMs were emailed on 11.05.04 to say that with effect on all decisions made after 01.04.04 the appeal submission production target is to be reduced from 90 to 60 days.

The new target is to clear 90% of appeals received (not decisions nade)on or after 1.4.04 in 60 (working) days. Our previous target was 95% in 90 working days.'Clear' includes withdrawals, revisions,supercessions as well as submissions.
