Parenting Time Presumption (EDM288)

Parenting Time Presumption

EDM number 288 in 2004-05, proposed by Dominic Grieve on 02/12/2004.

That this House believes that separated parents should each have a legal presumption of contact with their children, so that both parents can continue to parent their children and that children are able to benefit from being parented by both their parents, as well as from contact with any grandparents and extended family members able and willing to play a role in their upbringing; and urges the Government to replace the legal term 'contact' with 'parenting time' and to ensure that parenting time orders can be and are made and enforced by the courts, save where a child's safety would be at risk.

This motion has been signed by a total of 76 MPs.
