I asked why Legal Advisers were doing hearings privately and FHDRA's were taking longer. The answer was - there is now a new triage system - apparently because the courts are overloaded.
"Because of the triage system that has been put in place. Case goes to CAFCASS for safeguarding, then to a legal advisor to decide directions, then to a fhdra after. Well meaning but creates delay."
Having said that I would think that when there are no welfare issues found by Cafcass FHDRA is likely to be quicker.
