Section 19(2) of the Child Support Act 1991 suspends any existing liability to pay child support under any voluntary agreement (registered or unregistered) for the period a formula assessment applies; clause 10(a) was a separable voluntary child support obligation and was therefore suspended when respondent obtained a formula assessment; summary judgment for specific performance of the Agreement's child support clause was properly refused and the appeal is dismissed.
