Making family courts system more humane

According to a report in your newspaper (Jul 18), the Minister for Justice, Mr Alan Shatter, has plans to make the family courts ‘more humane’.

If one had any real expectation that this would happen, it would be a matter for celebration.

The current family law system is most certainly not humane. It has become a massive multi-million euro industry that survives and thrives by inciting and exploiting hatred between parents.
