House Bill 905 amends the Family Code to provide that a statement made by a child 12 years of age or younger that describes alleged family violence against the child is admissible as evidence in a hearing on an application for a protective order in the same manner that a child's hearsay statement regarding alleged abuse against the child is admissible in a suit affecting the parent-child relationship.
