Official guidance
The following guidance, used by decision makers in the DWP and local authorities, is available at
www.gov.uk. It has no legal standing, so you cannot quote it in an appeal, but it can be useful to refer decision makers to it if you want a decision overturned by an internal revision or supersession.
