PIP tribunal asked for medical consent form

Dear Sarah
I am in a similar situation, in that, as part of my tribunal, I have to prove that I have a disability under the Equality Act. My former employer's solicitor initially demanded complete access to all my GP records. During the prelim hearing, I protested that this was an unnecessary invasion of my privacy. A compromise was reached, with guidance from the judge, where only the records relevant to the disability are to be disclosed. Their solicitor sent me a consent form, which I did not fully agree with, so I have re-written it, to specify which records are included and who will have access. The Access to Medical Reports Act gives you the right to consent or not consent to someone accessing to your medical records (and it doesn't happen if you do not consent).  I am taking the interpretation that it follows that you have the right to specify which PARTS of your medical records you consent to disclosing (although I have struggled to find any confirmation of this interpretation). It remains to be seen how their solicitor  responds to the modified form I have sent. But my suggestion is, if you don't like the consent form they have sent you, or what you are being asked to consent to, change it, to what you consider reasonable and appropriate for the purpose of the case. Ultimately, you have the right to withhold any consent, but that probably renders it impossible to pursue your case.
