[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The Ministry of Justice has launched a three-month review to ensure family courts work with the interests of children at the forefront.
The initiative follows consultation on the government’s Domestic Abuse Bill during which concerns were raised around the family courts’ response to potential harm to children and survivors, including the potential for perpetrators to “re-traumatise” their victims.
