Every adult in the country could be eligible for £163.50 a week and Universal Credit would be scrapped in an idea put forward by the Commission on Social Security
The group wants the amount to go to any adult whose earnings fall below £163.50 a week.
The commission also wants to see child benefit doubled to £50 a week and their plan would see Personal Independence Payments range from £83.70 to £230.77, reports The Mirror.
