Children’S Rights to Representation: A Comparison between Sweden and England
Posted: 22 Jun 2008
Date Written: April 2008
Abstract
In both England and in Sweden, the approach to a child's right to representation differs between public law cases and private law cases regarding legal custody/parental responsibility, residence or contact. This article discusses the basis for this distinction, and how far it accords with the best interests of the child.
