Proceeding contribution from John Penrose (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 3 December 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill.


Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill

Does the hon. Gentleman accept that contrary to the Government's stated objective of trying to reduce the number of parents who refer their case to the commission in future, the clause is likely to have the effect of increasing the number coming to the commission because they may well go to a court first, and then have to start all over again with the commission after a year and a day? It will have the reverse effect from the Government's stated ambition.
