Top Articles - The Children Act, 1989
In 1989 The Children Act was implemented. Its main goal was to
transform practices and actions relating to the wellbeing of
children in England and Wales. The Act started from the principle that
the primary responsibility foe the upbringing of the child rest with
families, and that for most children their interests will be best
served by enabling them to grow up in their own family. Although
changes brought about by the act also reflected considerable concern
and dissatisfaction with professional services for children following,
for example, the Cleveland enquiry into child abuse and deaths of
children such as Jasmine Beckford and Doreen Aston while in their

arents’ care. Also the juvenile courts were deemed inappropriate for
care proceedings, as also was the dominance of a rescue over
preventive or respite approach to dealing with children considered to
at risk in their parents care.
The Act therefore sought to accomplish a better balance between reinforcing the autonomy of the family and enabling the parents too exercise their parental responsibility without state interference, and state support and protection of children where parents were failing or unable to meet their needs. Thus it provided support from local authorities’ foe families where the children were considered “in need”.

ct 1989 deals with disputes between parent
and the state regarding the care and upbringing of the children, many
of the changes introduced by the Act were a response to sustained
criticism about the complexities, anomalies and injustice of previous
legislation. Ryan outlined this: children could come in to
proceedings via a variety of routes, with varying criteria for entry;
the legal position of the children differed depending on which route
had brought them in to care; local authorities could assume parental
responsibility by an administrative procedure; children, parents, and
other relatives were unable to challenge local authority decisions
about contact w

was disregarded.
Before the enactment of the Children Act 1989, both in public and private law lip service only was paid to the child’s wishes and views. However the courts did understand that it was futile for parents to try and force their opinions on a mature child, the child’s level of intellectual or emotional development was irrelevant in deciding the extent of parental authority.

to take decisions “yield to the child’s rights to make his own
decision when he reaches a sufficient understanding and intelligence
to be capable of making up his own on the matter requiring
decision”. Whether or not a child is Gilleck- competent depends on their emotional and intellectual maturity. This means that the mature minor is able to make decisions on issues
depending whether or not they truly understand the complexity of the
issue. One would conclude that this also means that a mature minor
also has the right to refuse or consent to medical treatment. Although

The Children’s Act 1989 holds a number of provisions which now give statutory recognition to the wishes of older children to have an independent say on the issues affecting them, and also a greater degree of involvement in the decision makes process. The Act demonstrates the principles of respect for the child who is now in common law being seen as and individual and not as an object.

In order to asses the extent in which the act permits more attention paid toward the child’s needs, it is important to examine a number of specific provisions which appear to support their statement.
Section 1 of the Act provides that when a court determines any question with respect to the upbringing of a child or the administration of a child’s property, the child’s welfare is to the court a paramount consideration. It also sets out the general principles that are to be applied in court proceedings, namely; regard is to be had to the general principle that delay in deciding any questions with respect to the child’s upbringing is like

and in all care or supervision proceedings, the court should, when
applying the welfare principle, pay particular regard to certain
specific matters, and, the court should not make an order to do so is
considered better for the child than making no order at all, One could
argue that this is the main message of the act.
Section 1 contains a checklist of factors, which the court must consider when deciding whether or not to grant an order. There is no weighting to any particular factor but it does list key factors about the needs of the child and their views. The first point to consider

this clearly allows the child a voice as they have the right to be

give the child priority over other items. In order to discover what
the child’s wishes are the court will rely on an investigation made by
a welfare officer. The courts may not appoint a guardian if they believe it in not necessary to do so to safeguard his interest. Guardians investigate the background to the case and read the local authority files to scrutinize the local authority' conduct of the case. They also have
the right to copy any documents relevant

under a duty to attend all direction hearings unless excused by the
court. They can also be asked to produce any interim reports during
proceedings and they must produce a final report, which must be served
on other parties to proceed. Section 7 of the act allows the court
to request a report on such matters relating to the welfare of that
child as are required to be dealt with in the report, except in
specified proceedings where a guardian has been appointed.

may fail to consider the child’s’ wishes if, for example, on divorce
proceedings the parents agree and no order is made (therefore the

suggested that children can thus divorce their parents, which is
untrue, as it is not possible to divorce parents with parental
responsibility. Only adoption can fully sever the parent/child link.

young as 11 have successfully brought proceeding’s for full or interim

In addition to the above there are other examples of situations where the child has access to the court. The child is a party in all public law cases.

The new provisions relating to guardians also ensure that the child’s wishes are better heard.

refuse to submit to the assessment. The orders do not
authorize medical or psychiatric examination or other assessment which
a child of sufficient age and understanding refuses to undergo. Here,
unlike other provisions of the Act, it seem that it is not just a case
of ascertaining and giving consideration to the child’s wishes but
that if the child is capable of making an informed decision then his
wishes are conclusive. The right to refuse under these provisions had
been held at first instance to be limited to the stage of assessment,
and not to actual treatment, where the court could override the
child’s decision.

the wishes and feeling of the child being looked after and to give due
consideration to them, depending on his age and understanding, before
taking a decision which affects him. In addition, the child’s
religious persuasion, origin, cultural and linguistic background must
also be considered. Local authorities must give the child information
and explanations so that he can make an informed choice. The child
must know his rights and what is available and feel free that what he

ensuring that more attention is paid to the voice of the child and
