    Abstract:
    This document contains provisions of Newfoundland's 1988 Children's Law Act. Part 1 provides children with their legal status and abolishes distinctions made between children born inside and outside of marriage. Part 2 covers the establishment of parentage and defines the circumstances under which a man is legally considered the father of a child, including circumstances in which the child was conceived as a result of artificial insemination with that man's or another man's semen. The third part deals with issues relating to child custody and access, including the rights and responsibilities of a person entitled to custody and access, various considerations to be taken into account by a court in awarding custody and access, and the procedure to be followed if a party has been denied access to a child. Part 4 sets out the provisions for assigning guardians of the property of a child.
