There's a fair bit of creative results being delivered by Google as I searched for the The #ScottishChildPayment implementation date. Loads too many #Facebook results poured out - I've nothing to do with #FB nor #X & it is curious how teasing/tempting links abound now.

Just be clear; #Starmer foghorns at #Badenoch in FMQs how proud he is that his #Labour scrapped the "two child cap on benefits lifting kids out of poverty" BUT fully 4 years after Scotland's Parliament said NON to #Tories & introduced The #ScottishChildPayment in 2021 ameliorating all #Tory impact
Last week the Scottish Gov Budget set out a raft of measures including how it would be cutting child poverty to meet its targets & changes to the Scottish Child Payment www.gov.scot/publications...

🗣️ "There should be no limits to childhood, or to what the babies of today can go on to achieve tomorrow."
✍️ Great to see a piece in @dailyrecord.co.uk @telfc.bsky.social on the #ScottishChildPayment boost.

Children at the Scotland Demands Better rally in Edinburgh, October 2025, getting their faces painted.
People want a just and compassionate Scotland - not one where 1 in 4 of our #children are in #poverty. During the #ScotBudget process, every MSP can help make sure @scotgov invests in giving every child a good start in life through the #ScottishChildPayment.

Despite progress with #ScottishChildPayment making a difference to many families, there must be much more targeted action by the Scottish Government. Scot Gov must go further and faster for priority families which represent 90% of children growing up in poverty. #EndChildPoverty
Help please: we're trying to recruit some more parent research participants in Scotland for our #FamilyFinances project. Specifically: parents who are receiving #UniversalCredit and #ScottishChildPayment and who have at least one baby (0-12months) in the household. Can you help spread the word?
This is clear insight from @jrf-uk.bsky.social on what next @ScotGov must do to meet their child poverty targets by 2030. This includes increasing the #ScottishChildPayment to £40, supporting parents into secure, well paid work and clear actions on affordable housing. #EndChildPoverty
The reality is that #ChildPoverty still exists in the UK. Alongside 135+ orgs we're calling on the UK Gov to scrap the two-child limit and Scot Gov to increase the #ScottishChildPayment. Together we can #EndChildPoverty.

Wake up my friends in England Wales and North Ireland. If scotgov can help those in need with hands tied behind theur back ukgov could do it easily. Just stop giving huge tax avoidance cuts to corporations.

Child benefit isn’t devolved. So ScotGov will be mitigating the UK CB policy. As @thesnp.bsky.social do for other UK imposed policies. And you do know about the additional #ScottishChildPayment currently at about £25/week for each child? Praised as a game changer by @dannydorling.bsky.social
56% of people surveyed agreed that the #ScottishChildPayment should be increased from just under £27 to £40 per week. We’re calling on @gov.scot.web.brid.gy to raise the SCP to lift 15,000 children out of poverty.👓👇 www.aberlour.org.uk/news-item/po...
