Scope of the CRWIA

This impact assessment covers the changes to be made through regulation at launch, case transfer from Carer’s Allowance to Carer Support Payment, and also looks at impacts on child rights and wellbeing as a result of our wider Carer Support Payment policy. We will continue to consider and monitor impacts through ongoing policy development and evaluation and publish further impact assessment documents with future regulations.
