Conclusion
We share the Secretary of State’s view, echoed by evidence from front line support organisations, that a steady income is the best way to support people. Like her, we are concerned that one-off payments could increase the risk of fraud. We are also concerned about the risks that one-off payments can create for some vulnerable people, including people with some mental illnesses.
