It does. The Child Support Agency determines the amount that the separated parent must pay the parent with child.
I think it only applied to up to 16 years old, and certain people won't have to pay (prisoners, students, unemployed). My uncle decided to give up working so that he wouldn't have to pay for his kids.... he chose homelessness over supporting his children. Still, he manages to afford a phoneplan, somehow, so I get to read his daily racist posts on FB.
