How impartial/nuetral are the Citizens Information Centre/Citizens Advice Bureau?

I have a letter from the social welfare enquiring about some payments and Ive been advised to chat to my local Citizens Information Centre this week. How neutral are they in a matter like this given that they're government funded? Cheers Jerry
