Medical Test Of Incapacity For Work
EDM number 551 in 1994-95, proposed by Alan Meale on 06/02/1995.
That this House agrees with The Royal Association for Disablement and Rehabilitation, that the Government's intended new test of Incapacity for Work Regulations are seriously flawed as they ignore relevant factors related directly to claimants' ability to work, including their previous work experience, age, training and experience; is shocked that such tests should only concern the functional abilities of claimants, which in reality only measures individual incapacities to perform daily living activities; believes that such tests can only relate to the measurement of disability rather than a person's incapacity to work; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to ensure that in future all essential non medical factors are properly considered alongside a person's medical condition when such tests are carried out.
This motion has been signed by a total of 91 MPs.
