Proceeding contribution from Sally Keeble (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children and Adoption Bill (HL).


Children and Adoption Bill

: When assessments for contact orders are made or breaches of contact considered, will my right hon. Friend the Minister say—either now or later—what attention will be paid to domestic violence? Such violence affects 66 per cent. of all CAFCASS cases, and parents with care often breach contact orders because they are worried about a child’s safety in the care of a violent former partner.
