Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Instrument (including any effects on those provisions):
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order brings into force on 5th April 1993 all the provisions of the Child Support Act 1991 which are not already in force, or not fully in force, except for sections 19(3) (which relates to the giving of notice to prescribed persons before making a fresh maintenance assessment), 30(2) (which relates to the Secretary of State arranging for the collection of certain payments for the benefit of a child even though he is not arranging for the collection of child support maintenance for that child), 34(2) (which relates to the definition of “relevant information”), 37(2) and (3) (which relates to the duty of a person in Scotland against whom a liability order has been made to supply relevant information to the Secretary of State) and 58(12) (which provides for paragraph 1(1) of Schedule 3 to the Act to have effect in a modified form until Schedule 1 to the Disability Living Allowance and Disability Working Allowance Act 1991 (c. 21) comes into force. That Schedule is already in force.). However, Article 3 and the Schedule contain transitional provisions which delay the full operation of sections 4 and 7 of the Act until 7th April 1997 and varies in some cases the way in which the amount of child support maintenance payable during the first year of an assessment is calculated.
