Incapacity Reviews

Has anyone heard in what order this will be done?
Heard today at drop in centre that Belfast is dealing with it and has backlog of months.
Also that as been on IB for more than 5 years I would be one of the last to be reviewed.
Anybody else know anything?
Soz if this is covered elsewhere, I've just joined and I did look thru the site for the information first.

If you're referring to the IB migration process then this starts in Oct 2010 (trialled in Aberdeen and Burnley) with the 'national rollout' due to be initiated from Feb 2011.

My understanding is that the IB migration process for each individual will be undertaken around the time their IB would be due to be reviewed. Not aware of any other targetting of particular geographical areas.

At this stage I'm also still not sure what will be happening in cases where people have previously been classed as exempt from PCA.

As Atos in certain cases aren't even abiding by the current Regulations surrounding exemptions from the PCA it will be interesting to see what the situation is like for ESA! My gut feeling from reading what the various ministers have said there will be far fewer exemptions from the WCA than [should] exist from the PCA.

Sorry to be unaware, but please what does the initials PCA and WCA mean please?
