Is child support enforcement as corrupt in the UK as in the US? | HBR Talk 419

"The agency has since stopped recording minutes at these meetings."

Hannah Wallen, Mike Stevenson and Richard the Lionhearted on a Daily Mail investigation into Britain's Child Maintenance Service, which found at least one more father who killed himself after years of being overcharged.

Also: a man whose earnings the agency inflated by ten thousand pounds, leaving him paying more than double what he owed; another whose debt it multiplied by ten; one father who got six letters in a single day, each naming a different sum; the comparisons being drawn to the Post Office Horizon scandal; and women coerced into naming a man as the father, the men later cleared and never compensated.

"Is child support as corrupt in the UK as it is in the US?" "Yes." "The question isn't just that, but is it more?" "Yes."
