ESA- Indicators of substantial risk was created by Orangeblossom
I noticed that the more recent guide for ESA on MH grounds doesn't seem to contain the previous section on 2015 guide- Indicators of substantial risk for health professionals.
Is this because it no longer applies? Thank you.

Yes there was a significant update to the DWP guidance a couple of months ago.

Thank you. Does this mean the assessors just have to use their own judgement as to who the risk applies to in practice do you know?
