Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the helplessness allowance could be counted as income when calculating supplementary benefits.
Decisione estratta
No. The helplessness allowance was wrongly included; no exception under Art. 15b ELV applied, so it could not be treated as income.
Motivazione estratta
Art. 11(3)(d) ELG excludes disability/helplessness allowances from income. The exception in Art. 15b ELV was not applicable on the facts.
