Reform of the Family Law (Divorce) Act 1996 to provide for a finality clause would require an amendment to Article 41.3.2 of the Constitution in order to modify the conditions under which a court may dissolve a marriage. I have currently no plans to bring forward proposals for legislative reform on this matter.
