Judicial Summary

Rejecting this primary ground of appeal, Upper Tribunal judge listened to digital recording of major part of the hearing and concluded medical member’s questioning, while “brisk and business-like”, was in keeping with Chamber’s inquisitorial ethos - BK v SSWP (DLA) [2009] UKUT 258 (AAC) considered.
