Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to extend the Department for Work and Pensions Reducing Parental Conflict Programme beyond 2021.


This question was answered on 2nd June 2020

The Reducing Parental Conflict Programme is providing crucial support to families, particularly those who may be under increased pressure due to COVID-19. We are working with our local delivery partners to ensure that programme delivery continues during the period of social distancing restrictions, being flexible and innovative in ways that we can reach families that require support. Partners are continuing to make progress in embedding a focus on parental conflict in local services across all local authority areas in England. Decisions on taking forward the Reducing Parental Conflict Programme will be taken by the Department in due course.
