Hi,
I’ve noticed that the DWP PIP presentation for advisers gives a points range of 0-12 for Dressing, while the draft regs give 0-8. Does anyone know where the extra points have come from? If so what are the new criteria?
Cheers
Barbara

Do you know what was date of the DWP PIP presentation for advisers? If it predated the draft regs, I think there are only 8 points for dressing. A bit like how the scores for Mob go up to 15 but only 12 are needed for enhanced rate.

The power point is the one they currently have on their web page and is, I understand, the one currently being used for presentations to groups around the country.
So more up to date then the draft regs.
