The OCO has made a submission on the Family Courts Bill 2022. The OCO previously expressed the view, and continues to hold the view, that reform of the family justice system is long overdue.<\/p>\n

In our submission to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child in 2022, we noted that the current family justice system is not child-friendly, and has not been designed with children in mind. The OCO therefore welcomes the publication of the Family Courts Bill (the Bill), as it represents the foundation to establish a specialized family court system in Ireland, and is an important step in the realization of the commitments and overall vision of the Family Justice Strategy 2022-2025.<\/p>\n
