The Democratic Alliance today said it is pleased with progress being made to hold child maintenance defaulters accountable in law.
DA MP of
Trade and Industry Geordin Hill Lewis said this is an issue every South African
should be concerned about.
He added
that if pressure is maintained on parents to honor their financial
responsibilities to their children, the life chances of millions of South
African children can be improved.
Hill said there
is a lot of work still to be done. The Maintenance Courts are not functioning
properly, and many parents and children do not get justice in the family
courts.
The DA will continue to work with everyone who is as
passionate as we are about improving the life chances of South Africa ’s children.
