Sir,
I have the honour to refer to the Memorandum of Arrangements relating to the provision made for Child Support Maintenance between the Secretary of State for Social Security of the one part and the Department of Health and Social Services for Northern Ireland of the other part which came into effect on 5th April 1993, as amended in accordance with—
(a) the Exchange of Letters from the Secretary of State for Social Security to the Department of Health and Social Services for Northern Ireland of 7th November 1995 and from the Department of Health and Social Services for Northern Ireland to the Secretary of State for Social Security of 8th November 1995; and
(b) the Exchange of Letters from the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Work and Pensions to the Minister for Social Development of 11th March 2002 and from the Minister for Social Development to the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Work and Pensions of 14th March 2002,
(which Memorandum in its amended form is referred to in this letter as “the Principal Memorandum”).
I refer also to recent discussions between the Department for Work and Pensions and the Department for Social Development concerning the need to amend the Principal Memorandum so as to make further provision in relation to child support matters.
I now have the honour, with the consent of the Treasury, to propose the following amendments to the Principal Memorandum:
In Article 5—
(a)in paragraph (1) for “and (4) substitute”, (4) and (8);
(b)in paragraph (2) for “paragraph (4)” substitute “paragraphs (4) and (8)”;
(c)in paragraph (3) for “paragraph (4)” substitute “paragraphs (4) and (8)”;
(d)in paragraph (5) for “paragraph (7)” substitute “paragraphs (7) and (8)”;in
(e)in paragraph (6) for “paragraph (7)” substitute “paragraphs (7) and (8)”; andin
(f)after paragraph (7) insert the following paragraphs-
“(8) An application for a maintenance calculation which is to be determined in accordance with the new calculation rules shall be dealt with in, and in accordance with the provision made for, the territory in which the person who is, or is treated as or alleged to be, the non-resident parent in relation to that application resides.
(9) Where paragraph (8) applies to an application for a maintenance calculation and there is an existing case in respect of which the same person is, or is treated as or alleged to be, the non-resident parent, that case shall also be dealt with (insofar as it is not already) in, and in accordance with the provision made for, the territory in which that person resides.
(10) For the purpose of paragraphs (8) and (9), where the person who is, or is treated as or alleged to be, the non-resident parent in relation to the application falls within section 44(2A) of the Act, or Article 41(2A) of the Order, that person shall be treated as if residing in Great Britain.
(11) In this Article- “existing care” means any case where the maintenance assessment or maintenance calculation is made, or will fall to be made, otherwise than in accordance with the new calculation rules; “new calculation rules” means Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Act as amended by Schedule 4 to the Child Maintenance and Other Payments Act 2008, or Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Order as amended by Schedule 1 to the Child Maintenance Act (Northern Ireland) 2008.
(12) In paragraphs (9) and (10), where relevant, references to non-resident parent include references to absent parent.”
If the foregoing proposals are acceptable to you, I have the honour to propose that this letter and your reply to that effect shall constitute a Memorandum of Arrangements between us which it is proposed shall come into effect on 29th October 2012.
