    Have you made a new application for DLA, or been awarded high rate mobility for your son which has led you to apply to the Motability scheme?

    Have you applied for DLA for your son? Have you had an award of DLA for your son? You can't apply for the motability scheme without an award of high rate DLA mobility.
