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.
