8(1)In any proceeding under this Act, if the Court is of the opinion that any question arising might reasonably be the subject of a family dispute resolution process, and that it would be in the best interests of the family to attempt to resolve the question through a family dispute resolution process, the Court may make an order requiring the parties to participate in a family dispute resolution process and may adjourn the proceeding for a reasonable time.

8(2)If an order is made under subsection (1), the parties to the proceeding shall pay for the cost of the family dispute resolution process services in equal portions unless the Court directs that one party pay the cost in total or that the parties pay the cost in unequal portions as specified by the Court.
