Child maintenance

Not sure if this is the right place but can someone explain to me about the changes happening to child maintenance? I keep hearing that they are going to be changing it so that they can have access to NRP bank accounts? Is that the changes or can anyone explain so I can work out whether to close my case or worth keeping open, only plan to keep it open if there is actually going to be some benefit/ changes to the current system which means NRP gets away paying nothing.

The CMS can already enforce payments by deducting them directly from earnings, benefits, or a range of bank accounts. For those who still avoid paying, the CMS currently has to apply to the courts for stronger enforcement measures. The changes streamline this by allowing the CMS to take stronger enforcement measures without first going through the courts.
