Check out my, @soundings2004 and Kay Tisdall's @CYSRG1 new blog on the Bill that (we hope!) will incorporate the UNCRC into Scots law https://t.co/cVuxGIvuWa ...with a working link this time!
Amazing to see an amendment laid by @JohnFinnieHIon redress for children's participation rights for the Children (Scotland) Bill. Check out my and Kay Tisdall's blog on why redress is key to making children's rights real in disputes about contact https://t.co/QzJvUJOmzj
A link to our joint briefing on Stage 3 of the Children (Scotland) Bill. Real progress has been made to the Bill to protect and uphold children's rights...and there is more than can be done!! @StirCCWP@CYSRG1 👇👇
Looking forward to seeing the debate at committee stage tomorrow. A great opportunity to improve the Bill and achieve compliance with UNCRC #childrights#familylaw
Some great amendments re presuming capability of all children for participation rights. And progressing advocacy services for children. Must ensure amendments don’t detract from children’s rights or best interests. More to do on redress for children and monitoring implementation.
