Treasury Minister says experience qualifies assessors
'Experience' and regulations are what qualify adjudication officers involved in Work Capability Assessments, according to the Treasury minister.
Eddie Teare made the comments in the House of Keys while responding to a question from South Douglas MHK Kate Beecroft.
She wanted to know, specifically, what qualifications the assessors had to have.
Here's Mr Teare's response:
