Proceeding contribution from Lord Northbourne (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 December 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Child Maintenance.
Child Maintenance
My Lords, I welcome in particular the Government’s emphasis on promoting joint parenting responsibility. Perhaps I may build a little on the point raised by the noble Lord, Lord Soley. It is all very well to talk about joint responsibility, but if the absent parent is forced to pay over the money and has absolutely no control over the way in which the money is used, how can he exercise his responsibility?
