60.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraph (3), any payment of child maintenance where the child or young person in respect of whom the payment is made is a member of the claimant’s family except where the person making the payment is the claimant or the claimant’s partner.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1), where more than one payment of child maintenance—
(a)in respect of more than one child or young person; or
(b)made by more than one person in respect of a child or young person,
falls to be taken into account in any week, all such payments are to be aggregated and treated as if they were a single payment.
(3) No more than £10 is to be disregarded in respect of each week to which any payment of child maintenance is attributed in accordance with regulations 90, 91, 93 and 94 (calculation of income) or regulations 127 to 129 (treatment of child support maintenance).
(4) In this paragraph, “child maintenance” is to have the same meaning as that prescribed for the purposes of section 74A of the Administration Act(1) (payment of benefit where maintenance payments collected by Secretary of State) and is to include any payment made by the Secretary of State in lieu of such maintenance.
Section 74A was inserted by the Child Support Act 1995 (c. 34), section 25 and was amended by the Civil Partnership Act 2004 (c. 33), Schedule 24, paragraph 60 and the Welfare Reform Act 2007 (c. 5), Schedule 3, paragraph 10.
