Emeritus Prof Christopher May

Q. will the continuing troubles in the Family Court system be alleviated by more coverage & public knowledge of cases?

Well in the new year we will find out as the political transparency project is rolled out across the entire Family Court system.... in the next year(s) we will find out if, as some suspect, judgements will be 'better' if Judges know scrutiny is more public than before...

How families will fare in the news cycle is another matter....
