    Fathers seem to be making inroads in the discrimination they face with successful Equal Status complaints decided on by the Equality Tribunal. See HERE.

    Is this because the Courts are generally powerless as recently admitted in the Children and Family Relationships Bill 2013 Briefing Note where is says that
    "At present the main option of the Courts is to imprison a parent. For practical reasons the Courts avoid so doing and effectively have no remedy they can utilise to compel a recalcitrant parent to comply with orders providing for visitation / holiday rights of the non-custodial parent where the parent with custody refuses / fails to co-operate."
    or is it because the Equality Officers are not as biased as Family Court judges?
