  • Just for reference "woodbine" & "alwaysonthego", ESA is an entirely different benefit and it's rules don't apply in this case, although many already applied to IB anyway. Poster will remain on IB although the additions like age addition will probably be frozen at current rates. There may be migration of IB claiments to ESA at a later date.
