Allow the use of Polygraph test results as evidence in Family Court cases

A Polygraph test should be used as an additional tool to assist Judges in identifying the truth around allegations that are made in Court, to prevent a child losing a parent in these circumstances.

Currently, family courts use a mechanism called a fact finding hearing to identify the 'facts' around the case. We feel it is essentially about who the judge believes more. On this basis this could be on a percentage as low as 51%, against not believing someone at 49%. We think judges can be heavily manipulated into believing someone based on sympathy and empathy alone.
