Not scaremongering at all.

If you are happy with this response from the DWP after all this time that's fine, but I prefer to take notice of legally trained experts.

I will, however, pass this onto them for consideration.

As it stands, the advice remains unchanged ie if you are called or invited to one of these meetings; seek advice.

The new PM has said that no further benefit cuts beyond those already planned are to be made during the life of the current Parliament.

Just as I was thinking that this is was very small crumb of comfort for those who rely on this support to survive, I am now informed that those who score low points during the DLA to PIP conversion are now losing entitlement to ESA!
