Family Justice

Proceeding contribution from Oliver Heald (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 January 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Family Justice.
Does the right hon. Gentleman agree that one problem is that nowadays the courts treat as contact something that is very minimal? For example, sending a letter, postcard or Christmas card is called contact, whereas for most of the public it means a face-to-face meeting. Should not the courts, in any order that they make, try to set up an escalating programme of contact that leads to face-to-face contact?
