Child Support Act 1991

Collection of financial support - Discretionary relief in respect of penalties and pre-2021 penalties

135GA: Discretionary relief for residual penalty-only debt

You could also call this:

"This rule about helping people with leftover penalties is no longer used"

This section of the law has been removed. It used to be about giving special help with leftover penalties that people owed. The government took this part out of the law on 1 April 2021. You don't need to worry about it anymore because it's not part of the current rules.
