Este resumen resulta ilustrativo de su contenido:
This study, commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department
for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the Committee
on Legal Affairs, explores the possible legal scenarios of judicial cooperation
between the EU and the UK at both the stage of the withdrawal and of the future
relationship in the area of family law, covering the developments up until 5
October 2018. More specifically, it assesses the advantages and disadvantages of
the various options for what should happen to family law cooperation after
Brexit in terms of legal certainty, effectiveness and coherence. It also
reflects on the possible impact of the departure of the UK from the EU on the
further development of EU family law. Finally, it offers some policy
recommendations on the topics under examination.
