 at the Parliament recognises what it considers to be the significant impac
 t that failures within the UK Child Maintenance Service can have on childr
 en and families in Scotland\; notes the concerns highlighted by the recent
  BBC Panorama investigation into the operation of the service\; acknowledg
 es the experiences of Scottish families who are struggling to secure maint
 enance payments to which their children are entitled\, including those in 
 the Uddingston and Bellshill constituency\; notes the belief that children
  in Scotland should not bear the consequences of failures within a reserve
 d UK system\; recognises the Scottish Government's commitment to supportin
 g children and families within its devolved responsibilities\, and notes t
 he calls for continued engagement between the Scottish and UK governments 
 to ensure that the experiences and voices of Scottish families are properl
 y reflected in the reform of the Child Maintenance Service and that future
  reforms better protect children and families across Scotland.\n\nFurther
