FNF's Comment on DWP's CMS Consultation

14th December 2017 - for immediate release

Families Need Fathers comment on today’s DWP announcement of a consultation on Child Maintenance

It is right that the Government consider writing-off historic arrears that it failed to collect over several decades, at great administrative cost to the taxpayer.

HOWEVER

The consultation fails the political courage test by refusing to acknowledge that the underlying problems of Child Maintenance are the inability to pay and incompetent assessments of what should be paid.
