Amendments to divorce act Minister of Justice and Attor- ney General of Canada Pierre Blais has announced that impor- tant changes to the laws gover- ning child custody and support orders have received Royal Assent.: The amendments simplify . the procedures for obtaining a child custody or support order, or having an. existing 'one altered, when the former spouses reside in different provinces. They will now be able to ob= tain support orders through a procedure, involving courts of both .provinces. And where par- ties are obtaining a support order for the first time after a divorce is granted, the application no longer has to be , made in the province where the divorce was granted. , Other changes improve' access to data which may help locate individuals alleged to have ab- ducted a child. Police will no longer be required .. to obtain permission from the courts to apply toaccess federal databanks. . In addition, garnishee. sum- monses for support payments will now be valid for five years, instead of just one. "These amendments take .into. account the more difficult realities that today's divorced and separated couples must , face," says Minister Blais. "Children and spouses who depend on some form of support will benefit from a reduction in. red tape and better tracing and garnishment systems for support payments." -LUC KNOW -8u.
