Bereavement Support Payment
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will review the Bereavement Support Payment in the light of the changes that were made to that payment in 2017.
- Answer
-
We have always been committed to evaluating Bereavement Support Payment, but we need to ensure that we have enough information to assess all aspects of the policy, so that the review is meaningful. As BSP was introduced in 2017 and is payable in 18 monthly instalments we are only now reaching a point that we have sufficient data. We will set a date for publication of the review in due course.
