The payment of child benefit is separate from the issue of one-parent family payments. The conditionality attached to child benefit stands alone and the scheme applies up to the age of 18 years. It does not cross over to the issues raised by Senator Katherine Zappone. Child benefit ceases at the age of 18 years.
