Proceeding contribution from Lord Kirkwood of Kirkhope (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill.
Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill
Indeed, but I am talking about methods. There used to be a stripped down report in the annual report about how the standards committee had done its work and what the results were, with the methodology as well as the figures. I understand the corporate figures well enough. If that could go on the website so that it is available to those who study these things, that would be welcome. Obviously we are all agreed that the generality of the new system is clear. It deals with the exceptions. With non-resident parents we have exceptional circumstances in how they are dealt with and where the onus lies in taking the remedial action that may or may not be necessary. I do not always think that the parent with care will have the information to be able to do that. It has been a useful debate. If we get a letter that is shared with colleagues, that will take the argument forward. On that basis, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 87 not moved.]
