Tender description

A fundamental principle of the Child Maintenance Group (CMG) is to provide services that support separated families by assisting with the payment of maintenance between parents for their children. The Department uses DNA matching to confirm parentage where this has been questioned. During the lifecycle of the Child Maintenance application a Non Resident Parent/Paying Parent can dispute that they are the parent of a child named on an application and can chose to proceed with a DNA test through CMG's accredited testing provider or to arrange their own private DNA test with a Ministry of Justice accredited testing provider. Results from DNA testing enable CMG to confirm parentage and progress maintenance applications, securing payments for children from separated families.
