Proceeding contribution from Baroness Howarth of Breckland (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children and Adoption Bill [HL].
Children and Adoption Bill [HL]
My Lords, I am sorry if I gave that impression. There are many good mediators who work with that form of mediation and for some people it works. With families where there is drug or alcohol abuse or issues of aggression, that type of passive mediation is not always the best type of intervention. I am worried about having a register that has one sort of people. I am not saying that mediation does not work and I apologise if I gave that impression. It works for some people. What we want is a wide enough register that is not so restrictive that we lose out on a range of new initiatives that will make a difference.
