Claimants to pay for appeal hearings for non appearance

Additional Information

Claimants should be made to pay when they do not make an appearance at an appeals benefit tribunal. It costs thousands of pounds to organise a benefit tribunal , such as that for ESA. A judge and medical specialist have to be paid and also a presenting officer for the DWP. After all, it is the claimants whom have asked for the appeal. If they do not turn up - make them contribute towards the cost.
