Goring and Daneman (Child support)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered the refusal to register a child support agreement between the parties, Goring and Daneman. The central dispute concerned whether the agreement met the statutory requirements for registration under the *Child Support (Registration and Collection) Act 1988* (Cth).

The Tribunal was required to determine whether the agreement constituted a valid child support agreement for the purposes of the Act. This involved assessing whether the agreement satisfied the formal and substantive criteria stipulated by the legislation for such agreements.

The Tribunal affirmed the initial decision to refuse registration. It reasoned that the agreement did not meet the necessary requirements of a child support agreement as defined by the Act. The specific deficiencies in the agreement, which led to this conclusion, were not detailed in the provided text.
