Dear Mr Collins

 

Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) request of 19 March
2020.  You have asked for:

 

o The average waiting time for parenting orders defended hearings in the
family court by region.
o The average waiting time for protection orders defended hearings in
the family court by region.

 

I just need to clarify part of your request with you, where you are
seeking "waiting time", do you mean "time to disposal"? 

Once we have heard back we will be able to progress with your OIA request.

 

Kind regards

Ariana
