The Court of Appeal has upheld the right of the Home Office to deport children who are subject to residence orders under the Children Act. Children of separated couples are often the subject of orders defining custody. The removal from Britain of children subject to such orders is a contempt of court (as well as arguably being detrimental to their welfare) - but not the Court decided when the Home Office does it.
