Hon CARMEL SEPULONI (Minister for Social Development and Employment): The short answer is: all people on a main benefit receive a net increase of $20, and that was effective as of 1 July, keeping in mind, though, that benefits are paid in arrears and so it won't be in full effect until next week when they get the full payment that they are entitled to. However, I believe the member is asking whether supplementary assistance such as accommodation supplement and temporary additional support will be affected by the $20 rise in benefits. The system we use to pay income support is complicated and we are undertaking a longer-term project to simplify it. Supplementary assistance is also available to working people; therefore, how much an individual is eligible for depends on how much they earn and what their costs are. If someone's wages or benefit goes up, then their supplementary assistance will adjust depending on these costs. But when temporary additional support falls, it is not abated dollar for dollar for beneficiaries. The formula is more complicated. From 1 July, those who received a benefit increase of $20 could find themselves better off per week by $26 when supplementary assistance adjusts. Others who have lower weekly costs may find themselves better off by around $15 per week. I am not able to give the exact figure the member asked for because the number of people on benefit changes daily and not everyone will have received their full increase yet, as benefits, as I said, are paid in arrears. Also important to mention that the modelling originally used by the Ministry of Social Development (MSD) and Treasury during the Budget process modelled assuming 372,000 would be receiving a benefit as of 1 July, when the actual number is closer to 354,000. So it is complicated, but the reality is that the vast majority of people are going to be better off, and we look forward to 1 April next year, when the full increase kicks in.
