Universal Credit and other DWP benefits claimants could see their payments rise by £25 a week under a new plan.
Members of the SNP and Scottish Liberal Democrat are calling on the UK Government to reintroduce the weekly uplift that was given to Universal Credit claimants during the coronavirus pandemic to help ease the financial pressure caused by lockdowns.
The Daily Record reports, they also called for it to be increased to £25 per week and extended to all claimants on legacy benefits.
