+Uprate the Scottish Carer Supplement each April by the previous September's CPI, rounded to the nearest 5p, instead of holding it at £11.70 a week from 2027-28, and round the Carer Support Payment component's projected rate to the nearest 5p in the same way.

+"""Uprating of the Scottish Carer Supplement and Carer Support Payment.
+
+Social Security (Scotland) Act 2018 s.86B requires Scottish Ministers to bring
+forward legislation raising each figure of assistance given under Chapter 2 of
+Part 2, carer's assistance included, to at least its s.86A inflation-adjusted
+level. Their measure is the 12 months to September CPI, rounded to the nearest
+5p (Social Security Assistance in Scotland: up-rating for inflation in
+2026-27, sections 2 and 3). SSI 2026/170 reg 12(3) raised the Carer Support
+Payment component from 83.30 to 86.45 and the Scottish Carer Supplement from
+11.29 to 11.70: both are the 3.8% September 2025 rate, rounded to 5p. The
+supplement had no uprating metadata, so the model froze it at 11.70 a week from
+2027 while the Carer Support Payment component kept rising.
+
+Both rates now rise as Scottish Child Payment and Pension Age Winter Heating
+Payment do: each April by the previous September's CPI
+(gov.benefit_uprating_cpi), rounded to the nearest 5p. Invariants, for every
+year from 2027 to 2039, the last year of the uprating index:
+
+1. Each April's rate is the previous rounded rate times one plus the
+   September CPI rise, rounded to the nearest 5p. The reference here compounds
+   the published 2026 rates in Decimal, independently of the index.
+2. Neither rate falls, since the rise is never negative.
+3. Metamorphic: setting the previous September's CPI to a published rate g
+   moves that April's rates to the previous rates times 1 + g, rounded to 5p,
+   and leaves the year before alone.
+
+The YAML tests in tests/policy/baseline/gov/social_security_scotland check
+that a Carer Support Payment recipient in Scotland gets 52 weeks of each rate.
