Publisher's Synopsis
"Child Support: The Legislation" contains the Child Support Act 1991 and the Maintenance Enforcement Act 1991 and the regulations issued thereto. Detailed annotation and commentary are provided on the regulations.;As child support only comes into force in April 1993, there is a need for detailed information to guide people through the complex formulas and procedure. The Child Support Act proposes that the DSS collects maintenance from errant fathers and that the new Child Support Appeal Tribunal calculate how much maintenance should be paid by applying a strict formula.
