Summary

  • Down-payment on Add legislative references #1458 ("Add legislative references to every policy parameter"), focused on the Pension Age Winter Heating Payment (Scotland) suite — none of the six YAML files carried a statutory reference and two of the labels ("Pawhp lower amount") were copy-paste leftovers from Winter Fuel Payment.
  • Cites The Pension Age Winter Heating Payment (Scotland) Regulations 2024 (SSI 2024/250) and, where relevant, the June 2025 Scottish Government announcement reinstating a universal £100 base element for winter 2025-26.
  • All six files updated:
    • pawhp/amount/{lower,higher,base}.yaml — proper descriptions, distinct labels, statutory reference plus a mygov.scot user-facing reference.
    • pawhp/eligibility/{state_pension_age_requirement,higher_age_requirement,require_benefits}.yaml — pinpoint references to the relevant regulation within SSI 2024/250.

No numeric values change; this is metadata only.

Test plan

  • yaml.safe_load succeeds on all six files and metadata.reference is present.
  • Microsimulation() still builds.

#1458 asks for legislative references on every policy parameter. This is a
down-payment focused on the Pension Age Winter Heating Payment (Scotland)
suite, where none of the six YAML files carried a statutory reference and
two of the labels were copy-paste leftovers from Winter Fuel Payment.

- amount/{lower,higher,base}: add proper descriptions, fix the labels
  ("PAWHP lower (under-80) amount", etc., instead of three files all
  labelled "Pawhp lower amount") and cite SSI 2024/250 plus the June 2025
  Scottish Government announcement reinstating a universal element for
  winter 2025-26.
- eligibility/{state_pension_age_requirement,higher_age_requirement,
  require_benefits}: cite the relevant regs of SSI 2024/250.

No simulation-visible value changes; just metadata.
