No fewer than 12 doctors carrying out work capability assessments –​ the medical test for employment and support allowance –​ are being investigated for misconduct by the General Medical Council, according to a report in the Guardian.

Seven of the doctors have been under investigation since last year, with the other five having been the subject of complaints this year.

More details from the Guardian website.
