We call the Government to review and look into reforming Child Maintenance Service (CMS). We believe the current payment system does not reflect the true cost of raising children, especially in the current cost of living crisis.
We would like the Government to: • Look into increasing CMS minimum payments. • Ensure payments are linked to inflation and the cost of raising children. • Improving enforcement to ensure all children receive the financial support they deserve. We believe children should not be disadvantaged by what we feel is an outdated and unfair system. We urge the Government to act to protect families and secure a fairer future for children.
