With respect Taf, the DWP have agreed to the PIP for which your son qualifies; a subsequent review is both proper and necessary and despite your unfounded presumption about the future you should feel confident that even under revised rules your son will qualify.

Can't see that you're ever likely to be content with the system for administrating public funds but it wouldn't hurt to acknowledge that the DWP is doing its job despite staffing constraint and a continuing pay cap. I'm sure they employ plenty of people who have family issues of their own.
