Later data is available but has been withheld as will be published as part of official statistics in December 2017.</p><p>We recognise that claimants in the ESA Support Group and UC Limited Capability for Work Related Activity with the most severe health conditions or disabilities who have conditions that are unlikely to improve, and are unlikely to ever be able to move closer to the labour market and into work, are having to go through a very lengthy, stressful and bureaucratic process to claim their benefits.</p><p> </p><p>We are working with our assessment provider, medical professionals and other stakeholders, to develop a set of criteria that will help us identify those with the most severe health conditions or disabilities, for whom ESA reassessments can be stopped unless there is a change of circumstances.</p><p> </p><p>Reviews of PIP are a key part of the benefit and ensure that not only awards remain correct where needs may change and that we also maintain contact with the claimant, both features missing from its predecessor Disability Living Allowance. PIP recognises that for the most severely disabled claimants, the award review process could seem unnecessarily intrusive. Existing PIP claimants with the most severe, lifetime disabilities, whose functional ability has remained the same, are more likely to have their evidence reviewed by a DWP Decision-Maker and will not need to have another face-to-face assessment with a healthcare professional.</p> answering member constituency Portsmouth North answering member printed Penny Mordaunt question first answered 12/09/2017 16:36:41 answering member 4017 label Biography information for Penny Mordaunt
