Will CSA payments affect my benefit?

I’ve recently gone on ESA benefit which was back dated for 6 months the CSA contacted me about payment for my daughter I told them I was moving abroad and gave them my new address.They have made no contact with me but have started taking over half my benefit (I would think in order to get back the £5 per week back dated) this has left me with not enough money to live on,can they legally do this without trying to take out a re- payment plan with me first?
