That this House urges the Government to remove the veil of
secrecy from the workings of the Children Act 2004; considers that the
closed door policy of the family courts breeds suspicion and a culture of
secrecy which does nothing to instil confidence in those using them, which
affects not just the courts but the social services departments of local
authorities; and believes that it is possible to preserve the anonymity of
children involved in the proceedings without the cumbersome rules which
obstruct parents from receiving advice and support, which in particular
works to the disadvantage of parents with special learning difficulty.
