star this property answer text <p>Financial information used to calculate a liability within the child maintenance scheme comes directly from HMRC. This is faster and more accurate than relying on the Child Support Agency (CSA) assessment method of self reported income. Variation is available where parents believe there are additional factors that should be taken in to account. Where information held by the CSA is relevant to the likelihood of the liability being paid, for example if the case is subject to enforcement action, the Child Maintenance Service can take this into account when considering the arrangement by which future maintenance should be paid.</p> more like this

This includes taking action to tackle the root causes of child poverty and disadvantage. <em>Improving Lives: Helping Workless Families</em>, published on 4 April, set out a framework for a continued focus on improving children’s outcomes, now and in the future. It set out statutory and non-statutory indicators to track progress in tackling worklessness and other associated disadvantages that can affect families’ and children’s outcomes: parental conflict, parental mental health, parental drug and alcohol dependency, problem debt and homelessness.</p> more like this
