  A spontaneously broken non-Abelian SU(3) family symmetry can generate a
realistic form for quark, charged lepton and neutrino masses and mixing angles.
It also gives a new solution to the SUSY flavour problem by ensuring near
family degeneracy of the soft mass SUSY breaking terms. However the need to
generate large third generation fermion masses means that the group must be
strongly broken to SU(2) giving significant corrections to the third family
squark and slepton masses. We investigate the phenomenological implications of
such breaking and show that it leads to new solutions capable of fitting all
present experimental measurements and bounds as well as the dark matter
abundance.
