Child support spies to watch parents
PRIVATE investigators will be used by the Child Support Agency (CSA) to spy on parents who are not meeting their child support payments.
The Federal Government says the new measures would help the CSA collect outstanding debts of $1 billion from the current financial year.
Human Services Minister Joe Ludwig said a small proportion of parents was not doing the right thing.
"The size of the debt is growing, it’s growing significantly," Senator Ludwig said.

"It’s grown something in the order of 5.6 per cent in the last 12 months or so. It is concerning, it upsets me that a billion dollars is outstanding in child support payments."
The CSA will now be able to conduct optical surveillance, through private investigators in serious cases where parents have provided false or misleading information in relation to their child.
"What optical surveillance will do is provide visually compelling evidence that some people are not doing the right thing," Senator Ludwig said.
