520 _aThis article examines issues of custody and access within the context of family violence. Legislation that provides the framework for custody decisions and the safety of children, such as the Guardianship Act (1968), is discussed. The article reviews various factors pertaining to custody and access in situations where violence occurs in the family, such as the physical, social and emotional impact on children; advantages and disadvantages of supervised access; the likelihood of further violence occurring; and whether remaining in contact with both parents poses any risk to the child. The author suggests those working in the Family Court system must consider what is best for the child within the parameters of the law.
