Millions of people could get another £900 cost of living payment as MPs gear up to approve a new law.
The Social Security (Additional Payment)(No.2) Bill was approved at the second reading by MPs. This means it will undergo further scrutiny by Parliament at a later date and paves the way for more help for the most vulnerable families in Britain.
The bill suggests a £900 cost of living payment to be paid in three instalments to roughly eight million households receiving means-tested benefits as well as £150 for those on disability benefits.
