The client concerned had been advised that an increase in supplementary welfare allowance in respect of a child dependant may be considered if sufficient evidence of custody is submitted. The community welfare officer is currently in direct contact with the client concerned with a view to establishing the legal position. When the requested documents are received, the community welfare officer will assess the clients entitlement for the supplementary welfare allowance scheme.
