Mr. Mudie

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what is the level of maintenance payments resulting from the operation of the CSA in 1992–93 and 1993–94.

Mr. Burt

The information is in the table. In 1992–93, the child support unit dealt only with cases where the parent with care PWC was in receipt of income support.

Table: Average level of maintenance by parent with care benefit status
£ per week 1992–93 1993–942
PWC on Income Support 23.001 40.00
PWC on Family Credit 40.00
PWC not on benefit 45.00

Notes:
