This legislation covers eight distinct claimant groups across Personal Independence Payment (PIP), Universal Credit (UC) with health-related elements, and New Style Employment and Support Allowance (ESA). Specifically, it protects those who have been assessed with Limited Capability for Work (LCW) or Limited Capability for Work Related Activity (LCWRA) under UC, as well as claimants in the Work Related Activity Group or Support Group under New Style ESA.
