The Magistrates’ Courts (Enforcement of Children Act 1989 Contact Orders) Rules 2008
These Rules apply, with modifications, the Family Proceedings Court (Children Act 1989) Rules 1991 (“the 1991 Rules”), to specified cases in relation to the coming into force of sections 4, 5 and 8 of the Children and Adoption Act 2006 (c.20) (“the 2006 Act”). Those sections of the 2006 Act make provision, primarily via amendments to the Children Act 1989 (“the 1989 Act”), for the court to make an enforcement order or order for financial compensation following a breach of a contact order made under section 8 of the 1989 Act.
