Right. It is my understanding that before 2012, after a period that they deemed a reasonable amount of time, if you can't find work at your old level, you would have to accept work at a lower level.
It was also my understanding that this was not evenly applied throughout the country. It was almost at the discretion of the staff who were hearing the case, so there wasn't a single standard, which is unfortunate. Changing that now going back I think is going to create a lot of problems, especially with the Social Security Tribunal, which is very problematic as well.
