morning.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit made the announcement while addressing a press briefing held recently.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the Bills include The Status of Children, Maintenance of Children, Maintenance of Spouses and Parents, Domestic Violence, and Children Care and Protection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTuesday 25, 2023 we shall convene Parliament at 10 a.m. and on the agenda for this meeting of the House of Assembly, the family Bills which seek to improve the circumstances of our women, children, and elderly and offer them greater protection, care, and support under our laws,\u201d Prime Minister Skerrit said.<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cLast time I spoke to you, the press, I raised concerns about the need for us to go with what we have already and I am happy that the appropriate authorities have responded\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Skerrit added, \u201cThe Bills include measures to provide for the equal status of children, meaning that all discriminatory provisions in the law relating to a child born out of wedlock will be removed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He explained that this measure will allow children to have equal status under the law\u00a0regardless of the marital\u00a0status of their parents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImportantly it also addresses matters of succession and inheritance,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Skerrit said for example, if the parent dies without a will that each child will be treated equally under the law.<\/p>\n<p>He also pointed out that an act relating to the maintenance of children will also be introduced to conform to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe law will seek to improve the existing provisions relating to the obligations of parents to maintain the child, the specifics of the maintenance order, duration of the order, and method of payment among other related matters,\u201d the Prime Minister noted.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out also that the issue of child maintenance is always current and a matter of great importance, especially for single parents and children within our communities.<\/p>\n<p>The Bill, he said, will provide children with security and protection.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the Prime Minister disclosed that the government will also introduce a Bill for an Act relating to the maintenance of spouses and parents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Act makes provision for these two groups in our society who may be left vulnerable and unprotected under the law,\u201d he explained. \u201cIt provides for the reasonable maintenance of spouses after cohabitation has ended, meaning after the relationship has ended or dissolved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cThe Act also addresses the care and support of parents and grandparents who are in need of maintenance by reason of age, physical or mental infirmity or disability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister pointed out that against the backdrop of incidents of domestic violence late last year, the government will see the introduction of a Bill of an Act to provide greater protection for victims of domestic violence and for the granting of protection orders to promote their safety.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd there is also a Bill for an Act to provide for the care and protection of children as it relates, especially to adoption services,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n<p>Skerrit noted that these Bills are of great significance to society as they will help to ensure that the rights and responsibilities of family members are protected in any situation and that they are treated fairly and equitably under the country\u2019s laws in Dominica.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, he revealed that the Cabinet has approved a new structure for the social services department for the more effective and efficient administration of welfare matters relating to the care of children, women, the elderly, and other vulnerable groups.<\/p>\n<p>He said the welfare Division will operate within this new structure with an increased staff component.<\/p>\n<p>He went on to state that the newly structured department will also provide support for family laws which will go before Parliament on Tuesday to ensure they are properly implemented and monitored for effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd just to say to you that the increased budget, just for salaries for this new structure will be close to $400,000 per annum in addition to the existing budget of the welfare department of the government,\u201d Skerrit revealed.<\/p>\n<p>He mentioned also that a subunit of the Criminal Investigations Unit of the police force will be created to focus solely on reports of child abuse and domestic violence in Dominica.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c&#8230;and those officers will be provided with proper training so that we are more responsive to those calls for investigations and ensure that investigations are successful and resources are placed for investigations,\u201d Skerrit said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Five new Bills will be introduced when the Second Meeting of the First Session of the Eleventh Parliament convenes on Tuesday morning.
