Vote For GA resolution Repeal "Contact Rights Between Parent and Child"
Resolution Analysis
Overview
This resolution would repeal the recently passed "Contact Rights Between Parent and Child". In its case for repeal, the resolution cites the deference to the courts of member states concerning the definition of "best interest" of the child as one of its primary arguments.
Recommendation:
The Ministry of World Assembly Affairs finds the argument the repeal to be compelling. Allowing local courts to determine what constitutes the best interest of the child without defining what should be considered when determining those interests allows for cultural bias to be a determining factor in what constitutes the best interest of the child.
For the above reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote for the General Assembly Resolution at vote.
This IFV Recommendation was written in collaboration with our World Assembly Legislative League partners.
