Children's hearings redesign

Closes 28 Oct 2024

Voices of very young children

Where the hearing relates to babies and infants who are too young to express a preference regarding their participation, the Hearings for Children report recommends:

The voices and experiences of babies and infants must be captured and shared with the [hearing].”

19. Do you agree that particular arrangements should be made to capture and share the voices and experiences of very young children in a redesigned children’s hearings system?
