Change the way High Income Child Benefit Charge is assessed

Petition Details

Make it based on household income, or double the limit if a single parent

Additional Information

The current rule makes no sense. Why can two parents earn 49k each (£98k household total) and not pay the charge but one parent earning £51k has to pay the charge?
