Therefore, without further ado, I am happy to announce that Her Majesty's Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS) are Prats of The Week.
For why?
Just ask Tim Green, who was disputing a decision to remove his disability benefits.
Mr Green's ex wife (who helps him with his paperwork because of his poor sight) received a letter from HMCTS saying that he couldn't appeal the decision to remove the benefits.
For why?
Because he was dead!
HMCTS then added further fuel to the fire by writing another letter, one week later, saying that Mr Green was fit enough to work.
HMCTS officials have now issued a formal apology, as per the Mail:
"This letter was sent in error.HMCTS well deserving Prats of The Week!
We are taking steps to ensure that proper procedures are followed in future."

ReplyDeleteThis story illustrates another problem Nanny has with IT and her databases.
Well if he's dead he can tell the HMRC to stuff their tax demands...
ReplyDeleteI could say an awful lot more about this and the increasing number of similar incidents like it that are happening to disabled people and their families. Suffice it to say the government and its operational bodies are scum
