question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, for what reason her Department calculates maintenance payment under the Child Maintenance Service using the most up to date complete tax year from HMRC; and if she will make it her policy to use income from the most recent 12 months from HMRC.

uin	285015
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/09/2019 answer text <p>Basing the assessment on HMRC data has enabled the Child Maintenance Service to significantly speed up the processing of new cases which can be key to securing regular payments. The information provided is the most recent tax year within the last six years for which they have the complete tax information.</p><p>Many people’s incomes do not change greatly from year to year and therefore historic income is considered close enough to a non-resident parent’s current circumstances. Maintenance liabilities are also assessed via an annual review, which acts as a safeguard to respond to any significant change in financial circumstances. A calculation may be based upon current income if earnings can be shown to be at least 25 per cent different to the historic income figure received from HMRC.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 06/09/2019 13:44:36 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/09/2019 answer text <p>Where a liability order has been granted for the purposes of pursuing child maintenance arrears, the paying parent is given a 21 day warning period in order to respond and agree to pay.</p><p>If the warning period passes and no payment has been received from the paying parent or a payment agreement has not been made, then registration with a Credit Reference Agency will be considered. The decision is discretionary and intended to act as a deterrent to those parents who may otherwise choose to evade paying their maintenance.</p><p>The number of liability orders granted is reported in our published statistics and can be on found table 11 of the tables document in the attached link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/child-maintenance-service-august-2013-to-march-2019-experimental" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/child-maintenance-service-august-2013-to-march-2019-experimental</a></p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 05/09/2019 11:39:05 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/09/2019 answer text <p>The Child Maintenance Service makes Deduction from Earnings Requests (DER) to enforce arrears from non-resident parents in the Armed Forces. A DER works in a similar way to a Deduction from Earnings Order in that if it is agreed to, regular deductions will be made from the non-resident parent’s wages and passed on to the Child Maintenance Group (CMG). The CMG has a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Defence that supports the operation of deductions from earnings.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 05/09/2019 15:37:42 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
