Labor Grilled Over Family Law Changes

This week, the Senate is debating Labor's proposed changes to Family Law legislation.

We have reached the 'committee stage' where you can ask questions of the Government regarding their legislation.

I'd love to hear your feedback and receive some questions you would like to be asked.

In case you were wondering, because the explanation of the legislation Labor has proposed makes reference to Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), I tried to drill down on Labor's understanding of how this is defined.

As I have already stated, I cannot support what Labor is proposing. I have a number of amendments to this Bill that I will try to pass to protect the rights of children and families. I will continue to hold this government accountable and force them to answer the tough questions.
