TB v Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and RB (CSM) (Child support - cancellation) [2017] UKUT 218 (AAC) (5 October 2016)
This concerns the meaning of ‘ceased to have effect’ in paragraph 16 schedule 1 Child Support Act 1991 and related provisions under the old (1993) scheme. There is a distinction in relation to the need for formal adjudication about an event which calls for investigation as to the need for cancellation, and the position where a supervening event inevitably causes a maintenance assessment to cease to have effect. In the latter case a formal decision (as opposed to simple notification) is not required.
