Social Care Minister Chris Robertshaw says most people won't notice changes to benefits his department is bringing in.
Family Income Supplement and the Disability Working Allowance are being merged to create a new benefit called the Employed Persons' Allowance.

Mr Robertshaw says it's about streamlining a cumbersome system:
