The court heard the father’s application for an order for the return of the child to this jurisdiction pursuant to Article 11 (8) of Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 of 27 November 2003 Concerning Jurisdiction and the Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Matrimonial Matters of Parental Responsibility (hereafter ‘BIIR’). The child was currently in the care of her mother in Poland. She had been there since April 2010 when the mother wrongfully retained her there. Prior to that the parties had lived and were habitually resident in England.
