can you tell me if PIP money can be controlled by the LA if child has a FCO. IE we can give it to her as her needs arise. she is vulnerable due to her ASD and might use it to run away and she is not mature act about 7-12 sometimes young although she is 16 - she cannot leave independently qt this time.

Hi @Windsors sorry to hear this. There are instances where you're able to become an appointee. I've added a link to the Government website which might help provide more detail - Become an appointee for someone claiming benefits - GOV.UK
Best wishes,
