Closed petition Create an independent body to review family court cases
Closed on
Create an independent body to do random checks of family court decisions and check Cafcass and the court judge's performance and outcome during the case.
The performance of both parties should be measured and they should be held accountable if mistakes are made.
Families and children's lives can be disrupted and ruined by organisations like Cafcass and family court judges. An independent body is needed to check that right decisions are made and procedures are followed.
In the interests of transparency and just like the police these people should be reviewed on performance and investigated if wrong doing is identified.
Children's mental health could be damaged by incorrect reviews and decisions.
