New adviser practice guide for social security advisers

Law Centre NI has published a new adviser practice guide for social security advisers who are assisting a client in their appeal from an appeal tribunal to the Social Security Commissioner.

The guide is in two parts. Part 1 provides guidance on how to identify whether your client has grounds to appeal an appeal tribunal decision. Part 2 outlines your responsibilities as a representative at a social security hearing and the procedure that should be followed in appealing to the Social Security Commissioner.
