<p /> <p>Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) claims continue to be paid whilst
a claimant continues to satisfy the conditions of entitlement. Once the Work Capability
Assessment process has been completed claimants will be given a prognosis period which
advises when their claim is likely to be reviewed. However, routine repeat reassessments
are currently suspended for the time-being to concentrate resources on the processing
of new claims.</p><p>Claims to ESA only end when an individual is found to be ineligible
for the benefit or there has been a significant improvement in an individual’s functional
capability.</p>
