    The assessment report is just a recommendation and is part of your evidence, which is used to make a decision. It’s not the actual decision. It has been known for them to go against the report, especially if you have some evidence that contradicts each other. 
    If you’re not happy then you request the MR. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    @martyd85, poppy 123456 is right request an MR and send extra information and evidence with real examples of why the award for mobility was wrong.
