Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many and what proportion of claimants who moved from employment and support allowance to universal credit were found to be fit for work in their work capability assessment but were later found to be eligible for benefits at (a) mandatory reconsideration stage and (b) appeal stage.

The information requested is not readily available and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.
