Thank you Joe. It just got me thinking about how DLA can be relied on as in the case law
MK (Adequacy of maintenance, disabled sponsor) Somalia [2007] UKAIT 00028 (13 March 2007)
But I couldn't find anything that stated Contribution based ESA could be also. Other than it not being a public fund, which begs the question as to why an applicant now can not use it as Financial Support under the new rules as it is still not a Public Fund even under the new rules.
