In August 2014, in response to the Family Mediation Task Force in August 2014, the Minister of State for Justice and Civil Liberties agreed to:

Convene a 바카라 사이트˜Voice of the Child바카라 사이트™ external advisory group to improve practice and make sure mediation is focused on the best outcomes for any children involved.

The remit of this advisory group was to consider child inclusive models of out of court dispute resolution, including family mediation as it relates to private law matters. The overriding objective was to make sure the necessary steps are taken to promote child inclusive practice and make sure that children바카라 사이트™s and young people바카라 사이트™s voices are heard.

The Advisory Group submitted their final report to the Ministry of Justice on 16 March. Having considered the group바카라 사이트™s report and recommendations, the government has issued a formal response.
