Re: Incapacity tests reject 37% of claimants

39% successful appeal rate.

http://research.dwp.gov.uk/asd/worki...a_26072011.pdf page 7

And you are confusing your percentages - the 37% quoted were not appeals across all assessment. The actual appeals were 37% of the 62% who were found 'Fit for Work'.

So the success rate for appeals (at the date of the report) was 39% of 37% of 62% of all ESA completed assessments, which is approx. 9%. of all completed assessments at the time of the report.
