§ Mr. Squireasked the Secretary of State for Social Services when he proposes to implement a system of family courts in Line with the Finer committee recommendation.
The Attorney-GeneralI have been asked to reply.
The Government are considering the various proposals which have been made for family courts but in view of resource constraints and the implementation of the Domestic Proceedings and Magistrates' Courts Act 1978 that is now proceeding it would not be right to enter now into any particular commitment on the matter.
