I have not heard that the above is actually law yet ? is it in the bill before Parliament yet to become law, or will it be an adjustment by way of statutory instrument ?
It's in Clause 51 of the Welfare Reform Bill.
Which will not become law until it's been through both Houses of Parliament and received Royal Assent. So at present it's just a proposal.
If one of the publications you've ordered is the Disability Rights Handbook, it will be May before it's published due to the proposed changes to benefits in the Welfare Reform Bill.

This is also the case with the CPAG publications, as the Welfare Benefits and Tax Credit Handbook 2011/12 will not available until mid-April onwards, to accommodate any late benefit or legislative changes.
