| Annotation | Carers UK's response to the Green Paper 'No one written off: reforming welfare to reward responsibility' argues that the title is particularly relevant to carers who already carry significant levels of responsibility. Carers are expecting a full review of carers' benefits, but the Green Paper, but it seems clear that no further rewards are being offered to carers. There should be a separate stream of benefit which applies to all carers: Carers UK rejects the proposal to require carers currently claiming Income Support to claim Jobseeker's Allowance.
