A friend and his wife , both disabled , have due to no fault off theirs had their 8 year old put in temporary care 5 weeks ago . Anyway now the council are telling them that they owe £198 in bedroom tax .

Is this right as the child is back with them mid January

Applying for a Discretionary Housing Payment is the way forward.
