520			_aThis conference paper discusses the impact of the Domestic Violence Act (1995) and s16(b) of the Guardianship Act (1968) on children. The author argues that whilst it may be detrimental for a child to continue to see a parent who has perpetrated partner violence, it might also be detrimental for the child not to see that parent. The author argues that the effect of domestic violence on children varies from family to family. The author also discusses other concerns related to the operation of these two pieces of legislation, such as the length of time families wait between the protection orders being served and the opportunity to go to court. The author recommends that a more sophisticated approach is taken in the implementation of the legislation to ensure that children are not adversely affected by no contact decisions.
