Rejected petition Stop repeatedly assessing people whose medical conditions will never improve.

If someone is assessed to establish whether or not they are entitled to disability benefits and they have a condition that has no medical likelihood of improvement, then to reassess them is a waste of time and money from the DWP's point of view and an unnecessary cause of distress to the individual.
