Children: Maintenance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many Child Maintenance Service cases in the latest year involved a variation request relating to unearned income such as dividends, rental income, or bonuses: and in what proportion of those cases the variation was granted.
Answered by Andrew Western
The Child Maintenance Service (CMS) does not hold centrally collated data specifically categorising variation requests by type of unearned income (e.g., dividends, rental income, bonuses).
The information requested is not therefore readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.
