AW (A Child), Regina (on The Application of) v London Borough of Croydon: Admn 16 Nov 2009

Claim by AW seeking judicial review of a decision of the London Borough of Croydon given on 23 June 2009, whereby he was assessed to be 17 years old. He contends that he was born on 1 January 1994. That, it is appreciated, is an artificial date which is meant to reflect the age he believes himself to be, which would make him now nearly 16. There is a difference therefore of getting on for two years between the assessment of the local authority and that which he puts forward as being his age.
