ESA

A change at the end of last year means that some SG claimants may be excused from further reassessment if they meet the criteria, however, this can only happen after a further assessment has been done.

Some conditions may mean that a claimant would be assessed on their evidence alone, without the need for a face to face.

The change is only relevant to further assessment, a claimant would still remain in the SG.
