NOTICE OF DETERMINATION OF GROUNDS 1 AND 2 OF APPLICATION FOR
PERMISSION TO APPEAL
Of its own motion, the Upper Tribunal orders, pursuant to rule 14(1) of the
Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008, that it is prohibited for any
person to disclose or publish any matter likely to lead members of the public to
identify the child who is the subject of these proceedings. This order does not
apply to: (a) the child’s parents; (b) any person to w hom the child’s parents
discloses such a matter or who learns of it through publication by the parents,
for reasons bona fide aimed at promoting the child’s best interests; or (c) any
person exercising statutory (including judicial) functions in relation to the child
where knowledge of the matter is reasonably necessary for the proper exercise
of the functions.
The case is to be cited as AA and BA v A local authority.
I refuse permission to appeal on Grounds 1 and 2.
I direct that because of its wider importance, a copy of this ruling on permission to
appeal, which has been anonymised, is to be placed on the Chamber’s website. The
remaining Grounds, which have no importance beyond the parties, will be dealt with
in a separate ruling, which will not be on the website.
