Mandatory Reconsideration

Received Mandatory Reconsideration letter, what exactly is it all about? It also includes 'The Employment and Allowance Award' on the last page, I contacted them and they said they were obliged to inform us of the small increase in the rate. I am seeing an 'OT' at the moment but I was informed my next assessment is due in September. Is this likely to trigger anything??
Many thanks

Any Decision on your claim, either in regard the award or the payments you receive, can in principle be challenged, a change in the rules for appeals mean that a Reconsideration by the DWP must be carried out first, before an appeal can be made, the leaflet will be in connection to this, it will not trigger a new re-assessment.

No I am in the support group from Aug_13, and this has just landed on the doorstep!! I have no idea what it's about?
I've not asked for anything to be reconsidered
