Martin Partington: Spotlight on the Justice System

I have noted in these blogs before the existence of the excellent Family Justice Research Bulletin. This summarises research into the operation of the Family justice system in papers published in academic journals as well as by the Ministry of Justice itself.

The impact of legal proceedings on the lives of children, in particular, is so potentially great that it must be right for research to try to understand what those impacts are, especially given all the changes to the family justice system that have occurred in recent years.

The lastest edition of the Bulletin has just been published (December 2015). It contains summaries of research into different types of family justice proceedings.

Essential reading for everyone interested in the family justice system.
