Government has announced it's plan to repeal the presumption of parental involvement from the Children Act, meaning Children exposed to the family courts will be protected from harm under plans by the Government to repeal the presumption of parental involvement.
The repeal is founded on the clear principle that every child deserves to be safe – assuming it’s always in the best interest of a child to have the involvement of both parents can perpetuate abuse.
Although the current law includes safeguards to restrict involvement where it’s detrimental to a child’s welfare, removing this law sends a clear signal that the Government is placing the wellbeing and safety of children at the forefront of decision making.
The change follows the tireless campaigning of Claire Throssell, whose children Jack and Paul were tragically killed by their abusive father 11 years ago.
