Scottish Welfare Fund statutory guidance
Huge thanks to Steven from Enable Scotland for sharing these docs with us ..... they relate to the introduction of a statutory framework for the Scottish Welfare Fund to ensure a consistency of approach across local auths
(See these regs and related links for some background: http://www.rightsnet.org.uk/welfare-rights/news/item/introduction-of-statutory-arrangements-for-the-operation-of-welfare-funds-i)
The new docs are -
- Scottish Welfare Fund: Statutory Guidance (April 2016)
- Scottish Welfare Fund – Permanent Scheme – Summary of Changes (March 2016)
- Scottish Welfare Fund: Application Form (February 2016)
I guess that, in time, these docs and any updates will be added to http://www.gov.scot/Topics/People/fairerscotland/scottishwelfarefund
Thanks again Steven ...
Cheers - Shawn
