Is it (now) normal for DWP to suspend CA during the 8 week run-on after the death of cared-for?

I don’t deal with CA that much so just checking in advance of an appt tomorrow.  I thought the whole point of the 8 week run-on is to enable income to continue during the difficult period immediately following a death?
