ESA regulation 29

pusscatsmum wrote: From 28th January 2013 the Employment and Support Allowance regulations will change yet again,
The exceptional circumstances provision in Regulation 29 has also been changed. Trying to show that a claimant would be at ‘substantial risk’ in a workplace now also will involve considering whether any ‘reasonable adjustments’ in the workplace or prescribed medication would significantly reduce such a risk.
Could someone please answer these questions pertaining to the above?
1. How will this change things how we complete the form from the previous form.?
2. Please give an example so we can fully understand it in laymen’s terms.
3. Will this only affect those completing a form from 28th January 2013 ?
4. Will this affect those who have been already been placed in 1 –3-year term on ESA/ WRAG/SG affective from pre Dec 2012
Thank you
PCM,
Please stop posting duplicate questions under different Topics. it will now take me some time to sort all these out.

But as they were all different questions that many would be asking, I thought rather than 'tagging', which has previously been mentioned not to do so, I decided to separated out all the questions. Thinking I was doing the right thing. Very sorry

It's not like you PCM,
I thought you were trying to fill the board up.

The changes apply to claimants who are assessed after 28/01/13 and have received an ESA50 which uses the new descriptors.
1. Any such assessment is between the patient and their GP
2. You will have to wait until revised Guides are available
3. As above
4. Yes
5. No

I presume the answers will apply to all the different questions I set as new topics.
It was just that I received a copy of all of them this morning and found them very woringly dreadful, as they will undermine many people especially as both ESA/DLA are now intertwinable when it gets to being viewed either by ATOS or Tribunals now.
No doubt with the 20 mtr mobility for new PIP,ATOS will undoubtedly start to use it now in ESA.

There's no reason why a member should not ask further or related questions in their own topic.
