SB v Secretary of State for Work and Pensions (PIP) [2020] UKUT 198 (AAC) (11 June 2020)


"1. The tribunal should have adjourned in order to obtain clarification whether a person appearing for the Appellant was the appointee (as claimed) or to give the Appellant an opportunity to authorise her to represent her. It was unfair to proceed with the hearing in circumstances where the putative appointee/representative was not permitted to participate fully. 2. (Obiter) The tribunal administration did not have power to reject an application for permission to appeal on grounds of lateness or lack of a statement of reasons. The application should have been put before a judge."
