Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the average waiting time is for an Atos medical assessment in (a) Cornwall and (b) the UK.
The information requested on ESA is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.
Statistics on the time taken to process Personal Independence Payment cases are intended for future publication. The Department's analysts are currently considering what information will be included in the release. The release will be pre-announced in line with UK Statistics Authority protocols.
