Quotes

In a written parliamentary answer, Employment Minister Mark Hoban said: "entitlement to employment and support allowance (esa) is not based on an individual's diagnosis or the nature of their particular disabling condition, but rather on the way that condition limits their ability to function. the work capability assessment assesses the effects of a person's condition on their ability to carry out a number of everyday activities. many people with drug or alcohol dependence have an underlying psychiatric illness. drug or alcohol dependency does not of itself confer entitlement to incapacity benefits."
