Consultation ends: 15/08/08

The Welsh Assembly Government is consulting on proposals for the arrangements for financial subsidy, which will support individuals on low incomes to take part in contact activities that are directed or ordered by the courts.

The proposed amendments are intended to provide financial subsidy to individuals who are directed or ordered by the court to take part in contact activities, and will support the coming into force of the remainder of Part 1 of the Children and Adoption Act 2006.

The Welsh Assembly Government is seeking views on the model for identifying individuals eligible for financial subsidy that will be set out in regulations planned to come into force from Autumn 2008, and also on the options for the future management of contact activity provision in Wales.
