Time in alternative accommodation

Where a client:

• is in alternative accommodation immediately before the date their case is transferred
• was entitled to the care and/or mobility component of Disability Living Allowance but payments were suspended as a result of being in alternative accommodation immediately before the date their case is transferred
• is still in alternative accommodation on the date their Adult Disability Payment entitlement begins

then the relevant components of Adult Disability Payment should be put into payment for a period of 28 days (ADP Transitional and Miscellaneous Amendment Regs, reg 10(c)):

• from the date their Adult Disability Payment entitlement begins
• at the rate the component(s) in their Disability Living Allowance award would have been paid if it was/they were not suspended.
