answer text <p>We have no such plans. The value of the £150 Disability Cost of Living Payment is set in primary legislation: the Social Security (Additional Payments) Act 2023 (<a href="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/7/contents" target="_blank">Social Security (Additional Payments) Act 2023 (legislation.gov.uk)</a>).</p><p> </p><p>I am pleased to say that the payments, worth an estimated total of £1.17bn once all payments have been made, started to be paid into the bank accounts of qualifying recipients from 20 June with over six million people expected to benefit. More than 6m disabled people have received a one-off £150 Disability Cost of Living Payment. People receiving a qualifying benefit will be paid automatically by 4 July.</p><p> </p><p>We estimate that nearly 60 per cent of individuals who receive an extra costs disability benefit will also receive the means-tested benefit Cost of Living Payments, worth up to £900. Over 85 per cent will receive either or both of the means-tested, and the £300 Pensioner Cost of Living Payment.</p>

answer text <p>The DWP Youth Offer provides individually tailored work coach support to young people aged 16 to 24 who are in the Universal Credit Intensive Work Search group.

E.g. a claimant can enrol on the Youth Employment Programme and be referred to a Youth Hub. Therefore, the sum of those enrolled on the Youth Employment Programme, referred to a Youth Hub and referred to a Youth Employability Coach will be greater than the total number of individuals supported by the Youth Offer for each financial year.</li><li>A claimant can start on the Youth Offer multiple times. E.g. a claimant could be referred to a Youth Hub in FY21/22 and referred to a Youth Employability Coach in FY22/23. Therefore, some individuals will be included in the totals for more than one financial year.</li><li>This data is produced from a manual process and although care is taken when processing and analysing Youth Hub and Youth Employability Coach referrals, the data collected might be subject to the inaccuracies inherent in any large-scale recording system which features manual data. Therefore, Youth Hub and Youth Employability Coach figures are likely to underestimate the number of young people who have received Youth Hub and/or Youth Employability Coach support.</li><li>When a claimant enrols on the Youth Employment Programme or is referred to a Youth Hub or Youth Employability Coach they are classified as having started on the Youth Offer. We do not have a separate measure of engagement.</li><li>Figures have been rounded to the nearest 100.</li></ol>
