I would prefer it to be universal than the current situation where 800000 who are entitled to it don't claim it.
The assessment COs are incentivised to take people's benefits away. I don't know if they lose that if appels win or if penalised. I doubt it.

2 Undoing 14 years of micro favours that go against what's good for the whole country.
