UK:
The Ranks Are Closing In On The Blame Game

A few weeks ago I wrote an article entitled
"No End in Sight for the Blame Game" which
commented on the progression (or non-progression)! of the Divorce,
Dissolution and Separation Bill in light of Parliament's
temporary suspension.
Now that Parliament has been reinstated, it was confirmed during
the Queen's speech that the new Government will aim to
"minimise the impact of divorce, particularly on
children" thus confirming that the Divorce, Dissolution
and Separation Bill has been revived and placed firmly on
Parliament's agenda! Perhaps the passing of the Bill will also
be personally supported by our current Prime Minister in light of
his impending divorce proceedings!
The revival of the Bill means that, once again, we have hope
that the current timeworn law on divorce will be reformed in line
with modern day society.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
