Cramton and Cownies (Child support)

The applicant, Cramton, sought a review of a child support assessment concerning the percentage of care for the child. The respondent was Cownies. The matter was heard by Member A Ryding of the Child Support Assessment Review Board.

The primary legal issue before the Board was whether there had been a change in the percentage of care provided by each party since the last administrative assessment, and if so, whether the existing assessment accurately reflected the current care arrangements.

Member Ryding considered the evidence presented and found that there had been no material change in the care arrangements for the child. The Board concluded that the percentages of care reflected in the existing administrative assessment were accurate and did not warrant variation. Accordingly, the decision under review was affirmed.
