What it asks

Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to review the current system and operation of child contact centres and the procedure under section 11 of the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 so that the rights, safety and welfare of children are paramount in relation to child contact arrangements where domestic abuse is an issue, and to ensure that section 11 of the Act is consistently implemented across Scotland.

What the petitioner did first

I have raised the issues within the petition with MSPs past and present.
I have attended a multi-agency meeting at the Scottish Parliament, facilitated by Neil Findlay MSP, with representatives from a range of women and children's charities and other interested parties.
