The Family Procedure (Modification of Enactments) Order 2005
This Order amends section 97(1)(a) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (c. 38) so as to enable a justice of the peace at the hearing of an application under the Adoption and Children Act 2002 (c. 38) to issue a witness summons. It also amends section 97(2) to prevent a warrant being issued instead of a summons in the hearing of an application under the 2002 Act.
