There are considerable delays in the ESA assessment process, members are reporting waits of six or even nine months.
You can try contacting Maximus (HAAS/CHDA) for an update of wait times in your area.

Are the DWP stopping payments of this ESA benefit for the duration until they Make a decision even for ongoing claimants? Horrified if this is the case

You have misunderstood the previous posts, there is nothing that says that the ESA payments will be stopped.
