Ministerial CorrectionsTo ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions how much the Child Support Agency has (a) assessed as being due and (b) collected in each of the last five years for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement.
[Official Report, 8 November 2010, Vol. 518, c. 170-172W.]
Letter of correction from Maria Miller:
An error has been identified in Table 1 of the written answer given to the hon. Member for Tewkesbury (Mr Robertson) on 8 November. The figure for the September 2006 annual assessed amount was incorrectly given as £1,146 million and should have been £1,446 million.
The full answer was given as follows:
The Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission is responsible for the child maintenance system. I have asked the Child Maintenance Commissioner to write to my hon. Friend with the information requested and I have seen the response.
Letter from Stephen Geraghty:
In reply to your recent Parliamentary Question about the Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission, the Secretary of State promised a substantive reply from the Child Maintenance Commissioner.
You asked the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how much the Child Support Agency has (a) assessed as being due and (b) collected in each of the last five years for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement. [22664]
The attached table provides an estimate of the value of money assessed as being due and the value of money collected or arranged.
The value of money assessed as being due has been calculated by taking the average weekly assessment at September each year (excluding nil liability), and multiplying it by the caseload as at September.
Figures on average weekly assessment and caseload are available within the Child Support Agency Quarterly Summary of Statistics available in the House of Commons library or online at

Quarter to: | Cases with maintenance liability | Average weekly assessment (£) | Annual assessed amount (£ million) | Total Child Maintenance collected or arranged (£ million) |
---|---|---|---|---|
September 2006 | 751,700 | 37 | 1,146 | 867 |
September 2007 | 825,100 | 35 | 1,502 | 942 |
September 2008 | 855,700 | 35 | 1,557 | 1,090 |
September 2009 | 834,000 | 34 | 1,475 | 1,131 |
September 2010 | 854,100 | 34 | 1,510 | 1,146 |
Notes: 1. Caseload figures rounded to nearest 100. 2. Arrears and collections figures rounded to nearest £1m. 3. Caseload figures include cases administered on both the CS2 and CSCS computer systems as well as cases administered off system with the exception of the September 2006 figure and represent a snapshot as of September each year. 4. Collections and arrangements are a true representation of the amount collected and arranged over the 12 months to September. 5. Weekly assessment figures include cases administered on the CS2 and CSCS computer systems only and exclude cases administered off system. Work is underway to more accurately calculate the value of assessments. |

Ministerial CorrectionsPart 2 also requires the Minister, if the “alternative procedure” in clause 23 is being used in exceptional circumstances, to lay a statement giving reasons.
[Official Report, 11 November 2010, Vol. 518, c. 22-23WS.]
Letter of correction from Mr David Lidington:
An error has been identified in the written statement that I made on 11 November 2010. The penultimate paragraph stated:
Part 2 also requires the Minister, if the “alternative procedure” in clause 23 is being used in exceptional circumstances, to lay a statement giving reasons.
The correct statement should have been:
Part 2 also requires the Minister, if the “alternative procedure” in section 22 is being used in exceptional circumstances, to lay a statement giving reasons.
