Children and Families Bill – Provisional Sittings in November

31 Thursday Oct 2013

≈ 2 Comments

Whilst the Committee stage continues on 4 November when further amendments will be discussed, there are two provisional sittings for this stage scheduled, one on the 11th and the other on the 18th of November.

A quick recap on the purpose of the Bill is added below:

The Bill seeks to reform legislation relating to the following areas:

  • adoption and children in care
  • aspects of the family justice system
  • children and young people with special educational needs
  • the Office of the Children’s Commissioner for England
  • statutory rights to leave and pay for parents and adopters
  • time off work for ante-natal care
  • the right to request flexible working

And for anyone with enough digestive biscuits, you can check out all the related documents to the Bill, right here.

31 Thursday Oct 2013

Posted by Natasha in Family Law, News

≈ 2 Comments

It’s finally arrived, live TV broadcasting from the Court of Appeal is upon us. Will it improve justice? Or will it make justice more enigmatic?

The government is touting live TV as a landmark day for justice, but we think there are pros and cons to this new development (think lawyers playing up to the camera for effect versus expert witnesses pressured to behave ethically in the glare of the spotlight). What do you think?
