(asked on 17th June 2025) - View Source
Question to the Scotland Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what estimate he has made of the potential impact of the reduction in spend on Carers Allowance on Scotland’s Block Grant.
This question was answered on 20th June 2025
In Scotland, Carers Allowance is a devolved benefit.
Individual block grant adjustments linked to individual policy decisions will be published in due course.
The Spending Review set a three year envelope and guarantees that the block grant will be at least £52 billion by 2029, with an additional £9.1 billion in Barnet consequentials over that time period.
