New disability benefit replacing PIP to be rolled out in three areas in Scotland today

The Scottish Government's new disability payment for adults has opened for applications from people living in three pilot areas.

The Adult Disability Payment (ADP) will be administered through Social Security Scotland and will replace the Personal Independence Payment (PIP), which is delivered by the UK Government.

It will be open to people aged between 16 and state pension age, and who are disabled, have a long-term health condition or a terminal illness.
