Child Support Act 1991

Collection of financial support - Mandatory relief in respect of incremental penalties

135J: Relief from incremental penalties unpaid before agreement entered into on or after 26 September 2006

You could also call this:

“Cancelling old penalties for late child support payments”

This part of the law used to talk about relief from certain penalties for unpaid child support. However, it has been removed from the law. As of 1 April 2021, this section no longer applies. The government decided to take it out of the Child Support Act 1991. If you want to know more about the current rules for child support penalties, you might need to look at other parts of the law or ask for help from someone who knows about the most recent changes.
