Is it obligatory to spend on an orphan who receives money from the state?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If a man wants to take an orphan under his care, and this orphan receives money from the state, and it is difficult for the guardian to trade with this money, is it permissible for him to preserve it

Answer:
because the state has taken responsibility for him, so no one other than the state spends on him, because his need has been met. He should look for another orphan whose income is coming in. Yes.
