Answer

The Department records statistics on the number of instances of different types of enforcement actions and publishes these in the Quarterly Summary Statistics. This information is set out on Page 41 of the Child Support Agency quarterly summary of statistics which can be accessed online at: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/child-support-agency-quarterly-summary-of-statistics-june-2015.

Note:

A County Court third-party debt order was the enforcement action used prior to the introduction of Regular and Lump Sum Deduction Orders.
