From August the requirement to have a 2nd medical for ESA will be scrapped.
It is also being suggested that the new DLA medicals from 2013 will be based on a points system simlar to esa,and that it will take 3 years to re-assess all claimants.

    I am not sure if you wanted answer or not but yes that is what woodbine is referring to, it was announced last week but they are still going to send people to modern day "Job Clubs" anyway if they are not in the Support group.

    Fair enough, I thought it was announced ages ago though, maybe it was just an internal memo I saw.

    The WFHRA actually stops mid July I am pretty sure.
