star this property answer text <p>The vast majority of existing Universal Credit (UC) or Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) claimants will not be affected by the Work Capability Assessment Changes if they have already been assessed as having Limited Capability for Work and Work-Related Activity LCWRA. With the Chance to Work Guarantee, which will be introduced with the WCA changes in 2025, the majority of this group will be able to try work without the fear of reassessment, as we will be switching off department-led reassessments for existing claimants.</p><p> </p><p>The financial impacts on individuals have been considered in taking decisions on the Work Capability Assessment (WCA), alongside consideration of the responses to the consultation.</p><p> </p><p>The Office for Budget Responsibility have published their assessment of the numbers that they expect to be affected by the changes and HMT have also published the impacts in their policy costing note that accompanies the Autumn Statement. We will publish an Impact Assessment in due course.</p>

We engaged extensively throughout the consultation period, taking care to ensure the views of charities, groups and organisations that represent disabled people were considered. 14 public consultation events were held, both face-to-face across Great Britain, and virtually. We also engaged directly with clinical experts, employer groups and disability organisations across the country. We received over 1300 written responses from disabled people and people with health conditions, as well as the organisations that represent and support them. We listened carefully to what people told us and took their views into account when deciding about which changes to take forward.</p> more like this
