Majority of it was OK but a few dubious remarks.

It states "The client was found to meet the support group criteria"

at the end it states "The available evidence suggests a review in the medium term"

Exactly what would "Medium Term" mean?

The longest period between assessments that we are aware of, for the Support Group, is 3 years, so I would guess that Medium term is probably in the range 18-24 months.

You may be able to get a more definitive period by contacting the DWP and asking when you will be re-assessed, but as always, these period are at the discretion of the DWP, and you can be re-assessed earlier or later then stated.
