Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill

I thank the Minister for his response. On Amendment No. 82, his answer was, ““Don’t worry. We’ll get back to it, probably in this Room, going through regulations at considerable length””. On reflection, I think that Amendment No. 90 might be too high a threshold. One of the reasons why it was designed as it is was to show that there should be an expectation that some contact—the odd overnight stay—should be regarded as perfectly normal. Is it part of the Government’s thinking that it should be quite normal to have some contact—for instance, the odd stay-over? Would that be regarded as normal, as nothing exceptional?
