Pay $2 to charge $1?

So, there's this article on BBC News about... well, I think it's about a new agency to enforce Child Support, replacing an old agency that failed to do so. I'm, uhm, not sure though, as I'm having a little trouble with it. Maybe it's the post-lunch lull, but...
From the article:
"It is extremely difficult when the agency is being asked to chase relatively small sums of money from people who don't want to pay in circumstances where the mother often doesn't want that to happen either."
Are they trying to say that the last agency was spending money to chase down small amounts of child-support that Parent A didn't want to pay and parent B didn't want to receive? I'm confused.
