Recently I’m sure I read a UT decision discussing the old mechanism for Work Focussed Health Related Assessments and the new mechanism in the ESA (WRA) regulations.

I can’t remember the context of the decision and I’m hoping someone can point me in the right decision.

I’m thinking it was a Jacobs decision but I might be wrong.

Think this may be the one by Judge Gray - Case No. CE/973/2013
MT v Sec of State for Work and Pensions (ESA) [2013 UKUT 0545 (AAC)
See paragraph 20 onwards.

I understand the Sec of State has applied for permission to appeal to the Court of appeal on this decision.

Hope it helps

The application for leave is being heard today as I understand.
