B2. Time taken by a individual with an incapacity to bring out a regular day-to-day action should be regarded when evaluating whether the impact of that incapacity is significant. It should be in contrast to the it might take a individual who did not have the incapacity to finish an action.
In identifying a concern as to whether a individual satisfies the description of incapability you should consider the elements that a individual cannot do, or can only do with problems, rather than directing on them that a individual can do.
