A SCOTTISH anti-poverty charity has said it will push for a further increase to the Scottish Child Payment in 2023.
In November, the Scottish Government increased the payment - which sees a weekly payment per child given to eligible families and carers - from £10 to £25.
It was also extended to include eligible children up to the age of 16 instead of just those under 6, with more than 300,000 kids expected to benefit from the expanded legislation on top of the 104,000 already receiving the payment.
