To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Buscombe on 20 March (HL14428), what guidance they have given to local authorities to assess the amount of (1) council tax benefit, and (2) council tax support to which those individuals identified as entitled to income-related employment and support allowance (ESA) but who were moved to contributory-based ESA from incapacity benefit would have been entitled, and on the steps taken to compensate those individuals for any loss.

<p>Local Council Tax Support schemes are designed and operated by individual local authorities. The Government is considering whether individuals being placed on contributory Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), rather than income-related ESA, may have impacted their eligibility for council tax support or council tax benefit and the levels of support granted to them. Subject to the outcomes of this work, the Government will consider the need to produce any specific guidance for local authorities.</p>
