Have a look at the following previous posts as there should be some useful information there:

and

I hope that these leads are useful.

thankyou for the info - interestingly the decision the link goes to is about PKU. I have a case at moment where tribunal made indefinite award of mrc for PKU, but DWP are looking to appeal to commissioners.

Mike Shermer has already contacted me re his food allergy case - also useful to my clients!

Thankyou
Elaine
