Dear Sir or Madam,

Can you please provide a breakdown of how the job seekers allowance
benefit (england) of £64.50 a week is broken down. By that I mean
how that actual amount was deemed the amount necessary to sustain a
person for their job hunting and living expenses. I a;so would like
to know the name of the body/panel who makes such decisions.

Yours faithfully,

Miss L J Murphy
