MARRIED WOMEN AND CHILDREN (MAINTENANCE)ACT 1950

S3 (2) If any person neglects or refuses to maintain an illegitimate child of his which is unable to maintain itself, a court, upon due proof thereof, may order such person to make such monthly allowance, as to the Court seems reasonable.

So those of you who got $$ and have been busy sowing your wild oats- the present law  views the person liable, although the child may be born out of wedlock.
