         <description><![CDATA[
	A new research paper commissioned by Department of Education warns that the family justice system needs to reduce delays in making decisions regarding the welfare of children in order to prevent long-term damage to their development.

         <description><![CDATA[
	These guidelines on the issue of children giving evidence in family proceedings, have been produced by the Family Justice Council Working Party on Children Giving Evidence, chaired by the Lord Justice Thorpe. The working party was set up following a referral from the Court of Appeal in Re W [2010] Civ 57. The Supreme Court in Re W [2010] UKSC 12 subsequently held that there was no longer a presumption or even a starting point against children giving evidence in such cases.

	The reforms will make considerable changes to the legal aid system, including reversing the position under the Access to Justice Act 1999, whereby civil legal aid is available for any matter not specifically excluded.

         <description><![CDATA[
	Intractable, difficult, complex – whatever term is used for the sort of case when a child is resisting contact without objective justification – these are the hardest private law children cases to resolve. They often take a long time. They almost always result in considerable distress, whether that is for the child forced to do something they do not want to do, or the parent who regretfully abandons their quest for contact.

In addition, there was a further express separation of property agreement made in another country but the need for anonymity in the reporting of the case restricts the helpfulness of the...]]></description>
