Parental alienation 'a divisive, under-researched, and complex issue', says support group

The aim of the consultation process was to seek the views of stakeholders and individuals around the issue of parental alienation.

A final report on parental alienation in other jurisdictions is currently being reviewed by the Department of Justice as part of a process examining whether policy or legislative changes are required in Ireland.

Submissions received by the department in response to a consultation process launched in February by Minister for Justice, Helen McEntee, on the same issue are also under review.
