Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, when Ministers authorised a change to the ESA65B letter to GPs telling them there is no longer a need for them to supply fit notes to their patients who had been found fit for work through a Work Capability Assessment.
I refer the Honourable Member to the response given on 6 June 2018 to Parliamentary Question 146986.
The original internal recommendation to change the ESA65B letter was in summer 2016.
