HC Deb 11 December 1978 vol 960 c26W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Attorney-General if legislation is to be introduced in the current Session establishing family courts.

The Attorney-General:

No. At a time when there are already serious deficiencies in court accommodation due to the volume of criminal cases it would not be possible to provide, from the resources currently available, the separate court accommodation and additional staff which a family court would require.
