A full rollout of the new devolved benefit is expected to begin across Scotland in Spring 2024
The Scottish Government is working towards delivering a new benefit that will start to replace Carer’s Allowance by the end of this year, with a full national rollout planned for Spring 2024.
The regulations state that Scottish Ministers have developed a “safe and secure process, which will require no action on behalf of the individual wherever possible”. “Once Scottish Ministers have received this information, the regulations make provision for the Scottish Ministers to notify the individual of the intention to transfer them to Carer Support Payment. This notice will set out the process for that transfer.”
The report states: “We are working with carers, support organisations and the wider public to identify the priority changes to improve Scottish Carer's Assistance in future and to deliver these as soon as possible.
