- ask motability, if your MIL is worried what she will do without a car
- ask motability and the DVLA regards the VED in terms of 'It must only be used for the disabled person's personal needs. It can't be used by the nominated driver for their own personal use'
- the GOV were going to remove DLA if in care from October 2012, as far as I know they have now relented and he can keep it
- how in practice each care home deals with the mobility DLA payment component I've no ideaDisclaimer : Everything I write on this forum is my opinion.

If it is only for days out would they not be better hiring a car for those days ?
Do they not have their own car they could use for the days out (or could they buy one?)I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole
