Ms Martin referred to access visits in respect of children. I can only imagine that a child who has witnessed domestic violence and is suddenly told he or she has an access visit might not want to go. Sometimes he or she could be dropped off or picked up late. It is traumatic for a child, I imagine. Could Ms Martin elaborate on what she said about supervised access and facilities for the children?
