I have been asked to reply.The Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission is responsible for the child maintenance system. I have therefore asked the Child Maintenance Commissioner to write to the hon. Member with the information requested.Letter from Stephen Geraghty:"Your recent Parliamentary Question to the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families about child maintenance was transferred to the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions as the child maintenance system falls within his remit. Responsibility for the delivery of the statutory child maintenance schemes is the responsibility of the Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission and a substantive reply from the Child Maintenance Commissioner was promised.""You asked how much was paid by absent fathers for maintenance via the child support system; and what the total unpaid liability for maintenance was in each of those years. [264201]""We contacted your office and clarified that you were asking for information from each of the last five years. It should be noted that child maintenance is collected from non-resident parents, around 95 per cent. of whom are male, and 5 per cent. female. Information on the amount of maintenance collected from either fathers or mothers is not available.""Information relating to the amount of child maintenance collected and arranged is routinely published in Table 19.5 of the Child Support Agency's Quarterly Summary of Statistics. This is available in the House of Commons library, or via the internet at:""http://www.childmaintenance.org/publications/statistics.html.""This information for the last five calendar years, as well as an estimate of the total annual child maintenance liability, is set out in the attached table.""I hope you find this answer helpful."

|---|---|---|---|
| Total collected and arranged¹ (£ million) | Estimated annual maintenance liability² (£ million) | Total maintenance as percentage of regular liability³ | |
| 2004 | 790 | 1,206 | 66 |
| 2005 | 829 | 1,250 | 66 |
| 2006 | 880 | 1,297 | 68 |

| ¹ The amount of arrears of maintenance collected within each year may include arrears accrued in previous years. ² The estimate is of child maintenance becoming due in that year. ³ Total maintenance as a percentage of regular liability is calculated by dividing the child maintenance liability over the year by the total child maintenance collected and arranged by the agency over the same period. Notes: 1. Information relating to the amount of child maintenance collected and arranged is routinely published in Table 19.5 of the Child Support Agency's Quarterly Summary of Statistics. This is available online at: http://www.childmaintenance.org/publications/statistics. html. 2. Figures shown relate to each of the last five calendar years. |
