Getting rid of children
artdoc July=1994

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. Teame v Aberash,
Independent 5.4.94.
