In the ESA on mental health grounds guide it says things like

'PIP alert' - just wondering why it says in the guide that ESA assessments can be used to feed into PIP decisions?

There is nothing legislatively that prevents information form an ESA assessment effecting a current PIP claim or vice versa, all I can say is that we have only seen this done in a positive way (i.e. to allow an award) than cause the re-assessment of an existing award.
