“Aircraft control centres” for Australian families
January 26, 2006 by Andy Merrett
Aircraft Control Centres – that’s how Australia’s new Family Relationship Centres have been described (by the Attorney-General Philip Ruddock); helping and guiding people through the different stages of their relationships.
“I liken them to an aircraft control centre,” he said. “They will be the point of contact which people will know … If you need to deal with issues relating to your health you approach your doctor. If people have a family relationship issue they would approach a family relationship centre.”
The Centres will encourage people to work at reconcilition outside of the court system, often through showing couples the impact their conflict may be having on their children.
