I dont really see why thats important, but it should be indexed.
I mean, you cant have a civil conversation at this juncture without 'Inflation' being mentioned in some capacity.
People on AISH are on a fixed income and the purchasing power of that income is being pissed away by the day.
And its not like they have the casual luxury of easily supplementing that income. So unless the plan is to starve these people to death to save some cash then they'd best get on it.
