I welcome this. I do not know how it ever included barring orders on an indicative list. Certainly if it has learned that much it is to be welcome. I welcome that barring orders have been removed. In the letter Ms Hanney states, "I wish to clarify that barring orders and decisions of the Family Law Courts are neither specifically requested nor required by SUSI". The letter then makes the point about barring orders being removed from the list. I presume it is the same for judicial separations but I do not know. It is a bit disingenuous. Perhaps SUSI does not intentionally mean to be disingenuous. It has taken out barring orders but has it taken out judicial separation orders and divorce? I do not know.
