Voyle and Voyle (Child support)

The case of *Voyle and Voyle* concerned a dispute over child support payments, brought before the court by the parties, Voyle and Voyle. The central issue revolved around the percentage of care arrangements for the subject children, with the applicant seeking to alter existing determinations.

The court was required to determine whether there had been a change to the likely pattern of care for the children. This involved assessing whether the existing percentage of care determinations remained appropriate or if new determinations were warranted based on the current circumstances.

In reaching its decision, the court considered the evidence presented regarding the care arrangements. It applied the relevant provisions of the *Child Support (Registration and Collection) Act 1988* concerning changes to care patterns and the revocation and making of new percentage of care determinations. The court found that a change to the likely pattern of care had occurred, justifying the revocation of existing determinations and the making of new ones. The decision under review was affirmed.
