The powers exercised to make these Regulations are contained in the Child Support (Northern Ireland) Order 1991 (“the Order”). Most of the powers exercised have been inserted into the Order by the Child Maintenance Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 (“the 2008 Act”). Some of the powers are conferred by provisions of the Order prior to the amendments made to it by the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act (Northern Ireland) 2000 (“the 2000 Act”), some of which amendments are not fully in operation, and relate to the child support scheme which was in operation prior to 3 March 2003, and which remains in operation for the purposes of certain cases (“the old scheme”). Other powers are conferred by provisions of the Order as amended by the 2000 Act, which relate to the child support scheme provided for by those amendments, which came into operation for the purposes of specified categories of cases on 3 March 2003 (see the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security (2000 Act) (Commencement No. 9) Order (Northern Ireland) 2003) (“the new scheme”).
