Very little official guidance on this. It would be easy, but not necessarily correct, to guess at an answer and assume it would not be considered public funds, but it may be best to contact the coronavirus immigration help centre (details in link below) to see if they have anything official to say on this matter.

However, any public funds you receive and are entitled to as a British citizen (or person settled in the UK) would not affect your wife's application, it is only her who would not be able to receive public funds (in the event the self-employment support scheme is classified as such).

Oh! Cool. Even though we're being assessed on our combined income? Setting aside the coronavirus situation, I could always have applied for benefits if needed? (Not that they ever were).
