The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, pursuant to the Answer of 8 April 2025 to Question 44154 on Family Proceedings, when she plans to publish her Department's review of the presumption of parental involvement.

The Government recognises that the review into the presumption of parental involvement is eagerly awaited. It is right that we take the necessary time to consider the findings. The review is now complete and will be published shortly, alongside the accompanying research reports and our next steps.
