This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We're not sure what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take. You could start a new petition calling on the DWP to use existing medical assessments or diagnoses, rather than additional assessments, to make its decisions about whether people can receive PIP and ESA.
