Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill

Hilary Reynolds: About 7 per cent. of the current case load of the CSA is self-employed cases, and they are by and large the more complex cases. That is the nature of the income. We have tried to design the system for the majority of our cases—a key design principle for us has been trying to make a simpler system for both clients and staff, to give a better outcome to clients and children. The self-employed will continue to be one of the more difficult areas for us to take account of, but we are trying to avoid designing for every single conceivable eventuality in the Bill.
