There will be some holiday pay but the amount comes to approx 10 weeks basic pay. He hasn't worked in all those 4 years and is in the support group contribution based ESA. Do we have to give all funds received to dwp seeing that he has been getting ESA, just want to do the right thing.
Contribution based ESA is not affected by PILON or holiday pay.

It's always safest to let the DWP know of any change of circumstances and let them decide whether it's relevant or not.0
