Section 9: Child’s views on effectiveness of reliefs etc.
50.Section 9 requires the court or tribunal, when considering what relief or remedy to grant or what order to make, to give the child an opportunity (so far as practicable) to express views about the effectiveness of that measure and to have regard to those views. But the court or tribunal need not do so if satisfied that the child has been shown to be incapable of forming a view.
