Survey on remote justice in the family courts

A follow-up survey to gauge how well remote hearings are working in the family courts has been launched by the President of the Family Division, Sir Andrew McFarlane

It runs from 10-30 September 2020, and follows on from the rapid consultation carried out in April, which received more than 1,000 responses from family law professionals and parents. The Nuffield Family Justice Observatory, which collects data and evidence on family law matters, will carry out the research.  

View the survey and find out how to take part, on the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory website at: bit.ly/3meSssr.
