answer text <p>We do not hold any data that identifies families with a child under child arrangements order.</p><p> </p><p>The lower cap is still the equivalent of gross family earnings of £25k, and £29k in London. Where claimants need further financial support, Local Authorities can provide additional support through the use of Discretionary Housing Payments. The funding for DHPs is specifically aimed at a number of groups who are likely to be particularly affected by the benefit cap. These include people with family and friend care responsibilities.</p> more like this
