	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2015 answer text <p>Armed forces veterans receive payments either through the War Disablement Pension (WDP) or the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS). The AFCS applies to veterans injured from April 2005. It has always been the case that personal injury compensation payments have been disregarded in when assessing how much a person can contribute towards the cost of local authority arranged care and support. Since October 2012 Guaranteed Income Payments made under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme have also been disregarded. The Department of Health has been in discussion with the Royal British Legion about how WDP payments are currently treated.</p><p>The Government is in the process of considering the future funding of social care as part of the current spending review.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 16/10/2015 12:04:17 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
