legal Terms -child protection in divorce
the laws created to protect the rights of divorced parents' children. In the past, orders for "custody" and "access" with regard to children involved in divorce were frequently issued by the courts. However, the Children Act of 1989 established a presumption of non-interference, which states that a court will only issue an order when absolutely required, such as in cases when the parents cannot agree on how to raise their children. Courts have broad authority to issue section 8 orders that are required to protect the welfare of the child, as well as orders for property adjustment and financial provision in favor of the family's *children. When a local authority is asked to look into a kid's situation in order to assess whether intervention is required, the court may do so if it is worried about the welfare of the child in question.
