The Democrats will be supporting amendment (8) from the Greens. The amendment opposes the presumption of equal shared parental responsibility. Democrat amendments (17), (22) and (23), which were not successful, incorporated this amendment but would also have removed the references to equal and substantial and significant time. We will support this amendment, for reasons previously stated.
