单词 | child support maintenance |
释义 | child support maintenance Under the Child Support Act 1991 the Child Support Agency (CSA) became responsible for the assessment, collection, and enforcement of maintenance for children, rather than the courts. These responsibilities were transferred to a new body, the Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission (CMEC), in 2008 and subsequently (2012) to the Child Maintenance Service. As a general rule it is to the statutory maintenance service that a parent must turn for maintenance for his or her child; the courts however do have the power to make payments in certain cases, for example in respect of a disabled child or where a child requires money to meet the cost of his education. Parents are now encouraged to enter into “family-based arrangements” before having recourse to the statutory service. The statutory body has wide powers of enforcement: it can for example make an order for payment to be deducted directly from wages. https://www.gov.uk/making-child-maintenance-arrangement/using-child-maintenance-service •Introduction to child maintenance from the GOV.UK website; includes a child maintenance calculator |
