The regs were amended to increase these from £8.50 p.w. to £25 p.w. last year but only up to 01/04/09. Presumably these have reverted to the old rate again or has there been any amendment I've missed? Didn't notice anything in the Budget.
P.S. I'm not asking because of the possibility of hitting the trigger temparature because of the c**p weather up here at the moment but because we're just about to get our Benefits Rates poster printed.
