Legislation
The main legislation is the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 and the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006 . The first is relatively easy to understand and most of the information relevant to most fathers will be in Section 4 or Section 11.
The second makes adjustments to the first and other legislation and is thus quite hard to read without constantly referring to what it was altering.
