new claimant?

My worry about the government wanting to halve what new claimants get for LCWRA is that if this happens and I go to a WCA and get classed as fit for work, but I then do an MR, and then a tribunal and the result gets changed to not being fit for work is that maybe I'll be classed as a new claimant and then be on half the money which I wouldn't be able to survive on.

I'm thinking surely I shouldn't be classed as a new claimant though if they've overturned the result? It's like a continuation of the old claim rather than me making an entirely new one?

What do you guys think?

Hi @Ross1975 sorry you've not heard back on this. From what I've gauged, the mandatory reconsideration or tribunal if agreed and the original rejection overturned would be based on your current claim rather than a new one.
