Senator CHANEY
- I present the following petition from 1 1 citizens of the Commonwealth:
To the Honourable the President and members of the Senate in Parliament assembled. The humble petition of the undersigned citizens of the Commonwealth respectfully showeth:
Divorce is a social and medical problem not a legal issue and be relieved accordingly.
(b) All family matters must come out of the legal system.
(b) There must be no lawyers- no courts- and especially- no judges.
(c) DLRA's proposals must be considered for the new divorce laws.
( 1 ) The persons themselves to record their own divorce at the place where marriages are made.
(2) Guidelines to be established by mediators (nonlawyers) to resolve difficulties particularly with children and property.
(3) Joint custody and mutual financial support of children where possible.
(4) Child endowment to provide financial support of children when needed.
(5) Property disputes to be resolved as an ordinary civil matter.
(6) Adults not self supporting to be regarded as unemployed or on sickness benefit or pensions.
(7) Only the breach of agreement should incur legal process.
(8) The motivation of lawyers in family matters is for profit only and their involvement has proved a disaster for the community since I9S9.
And your petitioners as in duty bound will ever pray.
Petition received.
