Matrimonial Proceedings: Children
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what steps his Department is taking to minimise the impact of divorce proceedings on children.
- Answer
-
In April of this year the Government implemented the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020. This landmark legislation reduces conflict between couples within the legal process for divorce or dissolution by removing the ‘fault’ element from the process, thereby reducing the impact of divorce on any children by assisting parents to focus on their children’s best interests.
