Summary of findings
[REDACTED]Additional facts and evidence
[REDACTED]I have proposed a number of recommendations based on the findings of the review. Recommendations are attached along with a more detailed timetable of events. Although the timetable is lengthy, its contents do outline the findings and recommendations of the review.
Recommendations

That staff on the ESA helpline are provided with refresher training to help them to better understand the claim process, [REDACTED]
Equally, benefit processors need to update system notes promptly so that operators have the most up to date information available.
That the process for sending documentation between Jobcentres and BDCs, particularly by fax, is reviewed. [REDACTED]
That the call back process is reviewed, particularly the need for customers to be with their representative at the call back when they were with them during the initial call.
