The legislation establishing the family court provides that the family court may make any order (including orders punishing for contempt of court) that could be made by the High Court or the county court if the proceedings were in those respective courts; and the powers of judges in the family court to punish for contempt are proportionate to their level of seniority.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 11/09/2015 13:42:28 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
