Removal of a Child to be Adopted.
While an
application for an adoption order is pending
and the parent / guardian has agreed to an
adoption order being made, that parent /
guardian cannot then remove the child from
the applicant's home, or home of any other
carer if the child is in the care of a local
authority, without that persons permission
or without a court order.
It is possible to apply for an order for
the child's return or to prevent an intended
removal. Also search and find orders can be
made in the High Court and County Court.
