FAMILY LAW;CHILD SUPPORT

The powers exercised to make these Regulations are those contained in the Child Support Act 1991 (c. 48) (“the 1991 Act”). Some of those powers are conferred by provisions of the 1991 Act prior to the amendments made to that Act by the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000 (c. 19) (“the 2000 Act”), some of which amendments are not fully in force, and relate to the child support scheme which was in force prior to 3rd March 2003 and which remains in force for the purposes of certain cases (“the old scheme”). Other powers are conferred by provisions of the 1991 Act as amended by the 2000 Act, which relate to the child support scheme provided for by those amendments, which came into force for the purposes of specified categories of cases on 3rd March 2003 (see the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000 (Commencement No. 12) Order 2003) (“the current scheme”). These Regulations also exercise powers inserted into the 1991 Act by the Child Maintenance and Other Payments Act 2008 (c. 6).
