Petition Action

change the child maintenance policy

Petition Details

This petition is for the change in how child maintenance is worked out. currently they just take a percentage of gross earnings but don't take any other outgoings into consideration, I.e. rent, household bills, shopping etc.

Additional Information

I'm struggling to pay it myself and no help what so ever. All I get is this is the amount to pay and you must pay it. This needs to change.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly how you would like child maintenance to be calculated.

You'll need to give your full name to start a petition.
