The UK government is to devolve the power to set the cap on Discretionary Housing Payments (DHP) in Scotland.

The payments have been used by the Scottish government to mitigate the impact of housing benefit changes.

Scottish ministers had called for a cap to be lifted on the amount of DHP payments it was able to make.

I haven't heard it's to be UK wide. This a devolution/better together offer to Scotland... "taking a pragmatic approach" to all things Scottish.
