The Child Support Appeals (Jurisdiction of Courts) Order 1993
This Order affects appeals against decisions of child support officers on reviews under section 18 of the Child Support Act 1991 and against decisions to refuse applications for such reviews. Section 20 of the Act provides for such appeals to be made to a child support appeal tribunal, but this Order will require such appeals to be made to a court where they raise an issue of disputed parentage. The Order also makes a consequential amendment to the Law Reform (Parent and Child) (Scotland) Act 1986.
