Mr. David Atkinson
To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department if legal aid is available to obtain child maintenance through the Child Support Agency; and if he will make a statement. [34296]
Mr. John M. Taylor
Full civil legal aid is only available for representation in proceedings through the courts and is not, therefore, available to obtain child maintenance through the Child Support Agency. However, if a person qualifies financially, he or she may obtain legal advice and assistance under the green form scheme.
