Yes, he'll be classed as fit enough to work. If he's on DLA now, then that could be looked into and could lose a lot more.
You could qualify for ESA but still not qualify for DLA. Both are seperate benefits that you have to meet a strict criteria for both.
As Dilli says, you don't have to look for work on DLA as that is totally seperate to ESA as that is based on work capabilities.
