Abstract
This chapter assesses what the Scottish Parliament has achieved in the light of the problems it was designed to solve; the promises held out for it by its creators; and the subject-specific goals of child and family law itself. It shows that the Scottish Parliament has been active and productive, passing a myriad of statutes devoted to the field and numerous others impacting significantly on aspects of it.
