Sutherland EE (2016) Response to invitation to comment to the Justice Committee of the Scottish Parliament, Post-legislative Review of the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006. Scottish Parliament. http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/S4_JusticeCommittee/Inquiries/FL1._Elaine_Sutherland.pdf
Abstract
The Justice Committee’s decision to subject the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006 to post-legislative scrutiny is welcomed. The invitation to participate in the process encouraged those responding to focus on the main aspects of the Act and to do so relatively briefly. This note highlights key concerns and addresses them in outline only.
Professor Sutherland’s comments were quoted extensively by the Justice Committee in its report: Post-Legislative Scrutiny of the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006: http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/S4_JusticeCommittee/Reports/JS042016R06.pdf
