One woman is to take on the DWP over her daughters death:

She was asked to provide proof of her hospital stay, she didn't. At the very least that would have been the hospital discharge form. She had received notification, she just hadn't opened the letters. Only some benefits were stopped, not all of them. She didn't wait for the result of the Mandatory Reconsideration, although that decision was still a no. She still hadn't exhausted all appeal options, which would have kept the money coming in, and allowed time to get any evidence together.Any time during the final appeal phase the DWP can change their mind, if you happen to supply the evidence. She had sought advice from CAB, so they would have been able to give the options. Failing all that, she could have signed on for JSA, and immediately started an Extended Period of Sickness(EPS), which can last up to 3 months. That would have given her more time to sort things out. Where was her mother in all this?



The facts are all out there.
