What actually stops tribunals indicating time limits before re-assessment in ESA cases?

Seems to be messages on the bottom of all decision notices now. I had a two line reason on the bottom of a DLA notice this week. I’m struggling with the idea that Atos will follow the tribunal advice on ESA descions, but then again, we don’t know about any arm twisting that’s gone on behind the scenes. Common sense has to prevail at some point one would hope?

I attended a tribunal on Friday where on the new style decsion notice the tribunal printed a recomendation that the client should not be re assessed for 24 months….......I am keeping my fingers crossed !

My client also got a decision like this, and was placed in the support group. are they doing this for the WRA group too?
