When introducing the
Family Law Reform Acta
1976, the Attorney General,
the Honourable Rose
McMurtry said that the
existing common and statute
law has failed to keep pace
with the challenges of modern
family life. He said that the
new Bill sweeps away the
ramshackle structures of the
law governing matrimonial
property and support
obligations in a marriage
breakdown situation. The bill
contains new rights available

The basic rule in that ::� rovides security for the

is that family assets will be
divided equally between the
spouses, Family assets which

either or both spouses, the
things that a family use

be shared . equally by the

down regardless who had
bought the property and
irrespective of which spouse
held legal title.
Part two concerns the
obligations of spouses to
support each other and their
children, whether born within
or outside -of marriage, and of
children to support their
parents in accordance with
the needs and capacity of
each party. This part also
creates a limited obligation of
•;"one common law spouse to
support the other.
Where two persons lived
together as if married, one
person frequently becomes
dep.eident on the other.
especially if there is a child of
the union. If one of these two
people is no long r self-
sufficient, it is reasonable to
look to the other to assist in
restoring him or her to
financial independence. .
Mr. McMurtry said it was
more desirable to place a
support obligation on corn -
members at the family by
requiring that both spouses
join in any sale or mortgage
of .the matrimonial home. The
family'sright to shelter is
protected against the
unilateral .act of either
husbandor wife. Provision i s on is
also made for either spouse to
obtain an order to exclusive.

contents, where financial
support alone would be
inadequate.
Part Four of the Bill per-

respective rights to property,

could prevail over any of the
provisions of the Act 'except
