The Scottish Government has announced that the new Adult Disability Payment (ADP) benefit, will open for new applications in pilot areas across the country from March 21, 2022.

The new disability payment to be delivered by Social Security Scotland, will replace Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Disability Living Allowance (DLA), which are currently delivered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).

Adults of working age with a disability, physical or mental health condition or long-term illness, who are not already in receipt of PIP or DLA, and living in Dundee City, Perth and Kinross or the Western Isles local authority areas, will be the first to be able to apply for the extra monthly financial support.

The Scottish Government recently confirmed that more council areas will be introduced in phases until Adult Disability Payment rolls out nationwide from August 2022.
