"unless courts are seen to be taking the contact issue seriously, the message of the law that contact is an important right of the child may be lost." - Andrew Bainham. Children- The Modern Law 3rd Edition 2005.

(a) Discuss, with reference to statutory provision and relevant case law, the extent to which, if at all, the courts achieve an effective balance between the right of the child to enjoy contact and the concerns (legitimate or otheriwse) ot the carer parent.

(b) Do you consider that the provisions of ss.11A-11P Children Act 1989 will equip the courts more effectively to deal with contact disputes in future? Your answer should be fully reasoned.
