102NK Use of family consultants
At any time during child‑related proceedings, the court may designate a family consultant as the family consultant in relation to the proceedings.
Note 1:
Family consultants have the functions described in section 11A. These include assisting and advising people involved in proceedings, and this assistance and advice may involve helping people to better understand the effect of things on the child concerned. Family consultants can also inform people about other services available to help them.
Note 2:
The court may also order parties to proceedings to attend, or arrange for a child to attend, appointments with a family consultant. See section 11F.
