Who's exempt from the Work Capability Assessment?

There used to be a list but I suspect the DWP has ripped it up. I can't find anything current.

I seem to recall that people undergoing chemotherapy were exempt and anyone with a terminal prognosis of less than 6 months? Does anyone have a FULL list of exemptions?

There is a list of exemptions for the WRAG and the Support Group in the ESA Claim guides, claimants who meet these requirements should not be required to attend a WCA. See
