The court held that a carer's (mother's) allowance may be awarded only as a component of child maintenance under s.10(2) GMO and does not require specific separate pleading in the Originating Summons; it is sufficient that the allowance is included and evidenced in the applicant's budget and pleadings and the substantive hearing may proceed on that basis.
