Abstract
Reviews the approach of Irish courts to relocation decisions and suggests the approach they should take. Considers how they should interpret guidance, whether presumptions should be followed and what questions should be asked to assess the best interest of the child. Examines judgments from English and Irish courts and relevant legislation, in particular the Guardianship of Infants Act 1964 s.31. Explores relocation law in New Zealand, Canada and Australia.
