Rates of Scottish Adult DLA

The rate of Scottish Adult DLA that an individual is entitled to is dependent on whether they meet certain criteria set out in the Scottish Adult DLA regulations.

Scottish Adult DLA has two components: the care component and the mobility component. The care component has three rates: lowest, middle and higher. The mobility component has two rates: lower and higher (Scottish Adult DLA Regs, Reg 29)

An individual’s needs determine what criteria they meet and the rate of Scottish Adult DLA that they are entitled to. For more information on the rates and criteria of Scottish Adult DLA, see the Scottish Adult DLA Rates and Payment chapter.
