That this House applauds the We are Spartacus network for publishing its report entitled The People's Review of the Work Capability Assessment which is a comprehensive analysis not only of people's experience of the assessment system but also of the policies and activities behind the scenes revealing the objective reality of an assessment process that has caused such suffering and distress; and calls on the Government to take action in response to this report by scrapping the Atos Healthcare work capability assessment system.
