Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill

There is also the issue of expenses. Section 80 of the Child Support Act 1991 did not mention charging. My information is that HMRC charges £3.79 per referral. In answer to my hon. Friend the Member for North-East Hertfordshire, the Minister said that the exchange could be extensive. Has CMEC in its preliminary budgets put in a couple of million pounds to pay HMRC? Is that sensible? Do we really want money going from one Department to another in this way?
