In the first episode of the Pump Court Chambers Family Law Podcast for 2026, new host Rebekah Batt is joined by Penny Howe KC, of Pump Court Chambers, and Sarah Williams, of Forsters, to discuss the news that the UK Government intends to repeal the presumption of parental involvement enshrined within the Children Act 1989. They discuss the circumstances surrounding the introduction of the provision which is now set to be repealed, and what impact any repeal may have, in particular having regard to the different approaches in private and public children proceedings.
