CHILD ABDUCTION FUNDED BY IRD CHILD SUPPORT

Disclaimer Note.

A and I have resolved any difference we had, by excluding Lawyer intrusion.

No animosity is held toward her but the State System has to be accountable for participation.

IRD Child Support Proceedings

After finding out that A and S had been victim to Post Custodial Abduction, I wrote to the IRD Child Support on 14th April 2005 to advise them of the Abduction and to have the Child Support payments abated.

I was being led on a wild goose chase with IRD and eventually on 25th May 2005 I was put through by telephone to the South Island Service Centre and spoke to Mr. Ken Pope -Site Manager where I put my issues of concern to him.

I received a written reply from Ken dated 26th May 2006 in which he stated " I am prevented by the secrecy provisions of the Child Support Act 1991(section 240) and the Tax Administration Act 1994 (section 81) to advise you if the child support you pay is being passed on to the custodian.

My concerns were ignored and the stance of IRD was pay up and shut up.

I then received an Affidavit from A for marriage dissolution in which it clearly states under the "Satisfactory arrangements for children, section - Maintenance - None paid to me directly.

I again called up IRD and accused them of theft as they were unwilling to provide me with proof of disbursement and surely Anita wouldn't commit perjury.

This reply was again uncooperative so I sent the following:

17th June 2005

Inland Revenue – Child Support
Facsimile 03 3631 459.

Attn: Mr. K C Pope

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your correspondence of 26th May 2005 with enclosures, and your readiness to attempt to reconcile this matter.

Unfortunately, I regard the refusal to supply the information sought on the two quoted grounds of privacy (or secrecy) as inadequate in relation to the information sought. I therefore again request from Inland Revenue - Child Support a complete audit / reconciliation of both the gathering and subsequent disbursement of monies paid to date in regard to this account. I do not require nor expect you to divulge A's personal details.

Further to this request, I would also ask that you provide adequate details of the legislative provisions that provide for the collection and disbursement of funds and assistance to parents / guardians who have illegally abducted children overseas in breach of the Guardianship Act 1968 - “International abduction of children,” and the International “Hague Convention”. As I see it, this is aiding and abetting an illegal act, and I would like to know why this does not render the New Zealand Internal Revenue Department liable for prosecution in relation thereto. Perhaps the Department would like to explain to me why I should not seek damages from the Department in relation to obstructing the return of my children to their lawful home by providing their abductor with the means to remain overseas, and at my expense I might add.

Accordingly, I seek an immediate suspension of any future contributions by myself to this scheme until such time as my children are returned to New Zealand. I further seek reimbursement of all funds collected by the Department since the abduction took place on 1st March 2005.

Finally, Department records will show an erroneous demand of approximately $16,000 that was subsequently negated in accordance with “Provisions of the Act.” I anticipate the same diligence will prevail.

Yours faithfully,

Paul

My protestations were then passed on to the Manukau Area Office and then on to the Takapuna Area Office and back to the Manukau Area Office.

On 2nd November the Manukau Family Court reinforced the position of Abduction by issuing a declaration to the Swedish Court that the children had been wrongfully removed.

I informed Manukau of this event by submitting the following:

8^th November 2005

Jaquelyn Lambert

IRD Child Support

Manukau Area Office

Dear Jaquelyn,

The Declaration and following legislation places IRD Child Support and its own interpretation of the Child Support legislation in a violative position.

I am in the preparation of initiating criminal proceedings against the Commissioner.

There is 7(seven) days pending before my next liable parent deduction is to be transacted.

With the arbitral and intervention powers held by the Office of the Commissioner it is envisioned that proceedings can be averted and a suspension or alternatively an arrangement by consent agreed upon.

Paragraph 1 & 2 of the Declaration of Wrongful Removal

[1] I extend greetings to my Swedish colleague who has requested through the Swedish Central Authority that I make a declaration pursuant to Article 15 of the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction.

[2] Pursuant to that request, and for the reasons set out below, I declare that A L (formerly C) wrongfully removed A (then aged ten) and S (then aged four) from New Zealand on 28 February 2005, within the meaning of “wrongful removal” in Article 3 of the Convention.

Two days after sending this letter to Jaquelyn, I received a letter from FORSAKRINGSKASSAN (Swedish Child Support Agency) dated 5th October 2005

Maintenance support and payment of child support

A has applied for maintenance support for the children. She says that you do not pay child support.

No child support is established for A or S at present

Parents are obligated to support their children according to their means, A parent who does not reside with the child shall therefore pay child support etc......................

Full maintenance support is 1,173 Swedish Kronor per month

Jan Zetterlund

OK, now we have doubling up with an International liability, so hey pass me the manila rope.

To be continued......

Continuance hasn't been a priority as A and I have resolved, IRD have had to jump to a unified tune, but time and life has not allowed me to hold the system accountable that replication upon others may continue.

I apologize for my deficiency but will have IRD made accountable.
