Social Security Scotland will pilot a new devolved benefit, Carer Support Payment, in three council areas. The benefit will replace Carer's Allowance and will be available to new claimants from November 20. Existing claimants will transfer gradually to the new system without any break in payments.
Social Security Scotland has confirmed that a new devolved benefit, set to replace Carer’s Allowance, will be piloted in three council areas later this month. People in Dundee City, Perth and Kinross and the Western Isles will be able to make a new claim for Carer Support Payment from Monday, November 20.
The Scottish Carer Support Payment will maintain the extra financial help provided by the Carer's Allowance Supplement - two additional payments of £270.50 which are made in June and December each year - to increase Carer's Allowance by over 13 per cent, and will help to link carers to wider support and services.
