T (Children: Non-Disclosure [2024] EWCA Civ 241 Lord Justice Peter Jackson sets out the questions a Court should ask itself when asked to authorise relevant evidence to be withheld from a party to proceedings in the interests of a child: ➡ Is the material relevant to the issues, or can it be excluded as being irrelevant or insufficiently relevant to them? ➡ Would disclosure of the material involve a real possibility of significant harm to the child and, if so, of what nature and degree of probability? ➡ Can the feared harm be addressed by measures to reduce its probability or likely impact? ➡ Taking account of the importance of the material to the issues in the case, what are the overall welfare advantages and disadvantages to the child from disclosure or non-disclosure? ➡ Where the child’s interests point towards non-disclosure, do those interests so compellingly outweigh the rights of the party deprived of disclosure that any non-disclosure is strictly necessary, giving proper weight to the consequences for that party in the particular circumstances? ➡ Finally, if non-disclosure is appropriate, can it be limited in scope or duration so that the interference with the rights of others and the effect on the administration of justice is not disproportionate to the feared harm?

Embracing significant reforms to prioritise the wellbeing of children and streamline legal processes, the family law landscape is evolving in May 2024. Here’s a breakdown of the key changes: ☑️ The courts are set to adopt a more straightforward approach in determining the most suitable care arrangements for children. ☑️ Equal shared parental responsibility presumption will be removed. ☑️ Final parenting orders can only be modified under specific conditions, notably requiring a ‘significant change in circumstances’ to warrant reconsideration. ☑️ Clarity will be brought to the types of communication permitted during family law proceedings, ensuring transparency and adherence to established guidelines. ☑️ The role of independent children’s lawyers will be explicitly clarified. These transformative changes aim not only to simplify the application of family law but also to uphold the fundamental principle of safeguarding the welfare and best interests of children within the legal framework.
