Thousands of Scots on Universal Credit could miss out on a cost-of-living payment due to "flawed" eligibility rules, an SNP MP has warned.
Martin Docherty-Hughes has written to the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) to highlight the issue of who could receive the first £326 payment this month.
The MP was alerted by a constituent who was told she would miss out on the payment due to her wage being paid on a four-weekly basis instead of per calendar month.
