Concerns are being raised as to whether more support will be offered for vulnerable households next year
This year will the Department of Work and Pensions hand out five cost of living payments to support low-income and vulnerable households with a boost of up to £1,350.
Government support this year and last came in the form of cash boosts for low-income families worth £900 as well as one-off payments for pensioners and those with disabilities. When Sir Stephen asked about the future payments in Parliament on Tuesday, July 4, employment minister Guy Opperman replied that it was "monumentally above my pay grade" to announce when a decision to extend support would be made.
“These things are way and monumentally above my pay grade and are decided – as I am sure he knows, having done my job and many other jobs in Government – by the Chancellor and the Prime Minister at some stage over the course of this coming year.
