Roscoe and Child Support Registrar (Child support)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered the appeal of Roscoe against a decision of the Child Support Registrar concerning the percentage of care for a child. The Registrar had revoked existing percentage of care determinations and made new ones, which Roscoe sought to have reviewed.

The Tribunal was required to determine whether there had been a change to the likely pattern of care for the child, and if so, whether a new care arrangement applied. This involved assessing the evidence presented regarding the actual and prospective care arrangements for the child.

The Tribunal affirmed the Registrar's decision, finding that the evidence supported a change in the likely pattern of care. The existing determinations were therefore correctly revoked and new determinations made in accordance with the relevant provisions of the *Child Support (Registration and Collection) Act 1988*.
