<p>As of June 2018 (most recent published regional data, rounded to nearest thousand),
there were the following amounts of unpaid maintenance from Child Support Agency cases:</p><p>
</p><p>(a) Motherwell and Wishaw parliamentary constituency - £4,034,000 of child
support arrears</p><p> </p><p>(b) North Lanarkshire Local Authority - £17,366,000
of child support arrears</p><p> </p><p>(c) Scotland - £ 225,269,000 of child support
arrears</p><p> </p><p>Figures for b and c are published in the regional tables of
the Child Support Agency Quarterly Summary of Statistics <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/child-support-agency-quarterly-summary-of-statistics-june-2018"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/child-support-agency-quarterly-summary-of-statistics-june-2018</a></p><p>
</p><p>These amounts include all Child Support Agency cases with arrears. This includes
cases where recent payments have been made and those where there has been no payment
made within the last 3 months. The vast majority of these cases have received no recent
payment, and it is only these cases that will be addressed under the Child Support
(Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2018.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
