Four children have been killed since 2014 by a parent given access to them by a court.

The fundamental presumption in law is that it is in the best interests of the child to have contact with both parents. In one incident, a father who went on to kill both of his children was granted unsupervised contact with them in an interim order. The case review found that numerous professionals - including a social worker, a teacher and an official from court support service Cafcass - had been too scared to be left alone with him because of his aggressive behaviour.

They do not investigate the family courts, so it is not possible to establish whether the courts' decisions led directly to the deaths.She has spent £130,000 in legal fees to try to protect her children.She says they have since come home with injuries - and she has taken them to A&E. Mary says her children now"wake up sobbing, and I just reassure them that no-one is expecting them to stand up to their dad".

Labour's shadow policing minister, Louise Haigh MP, said it was"horrifying that even in proven cases of sexual assault, severe domestic abuse, rape, murder in some cases, men are still being encouraged and granted access to their child".

To continue no officials responsible for infecting children with bad blood from USA some have died since. No officials responsible for sending thousands of children to Australia in the 1950s to be abused. Suddenly 123 plus sign this and that ....family courts need to transparent.

It doesn't need an enquiry to have longer sentences for the abuser. It doesn't need an enquiry to provide better locks, panic alarms to the victims. It doesn't need an enquiry to make abusers tagged.

Sound right.

Selective enquiries....when they can shift the blame to someone else

Cute
