PIP decision maker content

If you are considering challenging the Decision then you should not wait for the Decision Maker to contact you, as there is a good chance that this will not happen, however much you chase them!

Before making a decision to do this, you should make sure that your current award is reasonably secure, if you scored 8 points then you might want to be more cautious than if you scored 11. Also you need to consider high likely you are to receive a higher award, 1 or 2 points may be possible but 6 or 7 may be beyond your reach unless you can show that there are fundamental mistakes in the current Decision.
