Clause 4 - Enforcement orders
Children and Adoption Bill [Lords]

Will the Minister deal with the point that I drew to the attention of the hon. Member for Mid-Dorset and North Poole? Let us consider contact activity conditions under the Bill. Perhaps the right hon. Lady can tell me whether I am right on this, but I understand that a person who breaches a contact activity condition breaches a contact order. The court would not make a contact activity condition unless it believed it necessary to assist in the provision of contact. If the people on whom the order is made know that there is no effective sanction when they breach the contact activity condition, what is the worth of the condition?
