Funded Activity Summary

Post-separation parenting and financial settlements: the long-term financial impacts of shared care. This proposal's focus on financial and parenting arrangements over time is both important and timely given increasing focus on shared post-separation parenting in Australia and internationally. By considering the impact of changes in shared care over time on financial decisions made at separation (especially property division), this proposal will establish how to embody in financial arrangements the long-term changes associated with shared parenting. This will enable us to empower separating couples, their advisers and courts to make financial settlements which reduce the potentially adverse financial and social impacts of post-separation financial arrangements on children, carers, and our social security system.
