HC Deb 16 September 2003 vol 410 cc694-5W
Angus Robertson

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions what assessment his Department has made of progress in the implementation of the new child support system; when the full transfer of child support cases onto the new system will take place; and if he will make a statement. [129974]

Mr. Pond

A report on progress in the implementation of the new child support scheme was placed in the Library on 14 July 2003. We have made it clear that we shall only make a decision on the transfer of old scheme cases once we are sure that the new scheme is working well.
