We have interpreted dispute to refer to any situation where there is a disagreement between parents about the details of a child maintenance case which have an impact on the amount of child maintenance to be paid. As such, a dispute could refer to mandatory reconsiderations and/or appeals. Statistics on mandatory reconsiderations and appeals are published in tables 15 and 16 of the Child Maintenance Service: Aug 2013 to Mar 2018 (experimental) available online at:<\/p>
