Original Note:
Child Benefit is not one of the social security / welfare benefits that was devolved, under the Scotland Act 2016, and therefore, the Scottish Government cannot "fix" the two-child limit on Child Benefit. Scottish Child Payment is a "top-up" benefit. https://www.gov.scot/publications/seventh-annual-report-implementation-scotland-act-2016/pages/7/ https://www.gov.scot/publications/annex-1-child-poverty-scotland-act-2017-requirements/
