Baroness Faithfull

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they accept the statistics on the effectiveness of conciliation and mediation in resolving family disputes in New Zealand, referred to in an article in Community Care of 26th June 1986 by Mr. Tony Hipgrave (New Zealand: A Team Approach).

The Lord Chancellor (Lord Hailsham of Saint Marylebone)

There is no reason to question the accuracy of these statistics.
