Expand eligibility criteria for legal aid to cover all cases for single parents
I would like the Government to ensure that the eligibility criteria for legal aid to ensure that all single parents are eligible, regardless of their income or the case being heard. I think this will help to ensure that it is accessible to everyone who needs it.
I don't believe that single parents have sufficient access to help with funding legal representation. I think that eligibility criteria should be widened to ensure that all single parents able to access legal aid when they need to.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
