Brittisk välfärdsregel höjer utbetalningar till polygame hushåll

En sedan länge etablerad men föga känd bestämmelse i det brittiska förmånssystemet ger nu högre veckoutbetalningar till kvalificerade hushåll som inkluderar flera makar från utländska polygama äktenskap.

Enligt uppdaterade officiella siffror erhåller berättigade hushåll ytterligare 166 pund per vecka för varje tillkommande make eller maka. Höjningen är en del av Storbritanniens årliga uppräkning av förmåner som är kopplad till löneökningar och inflation. Tjänstemän betonar att antalet berörda hushåll förblir relativt litet.
