The applicant society sought an order for no further involvement regarding three children previously found in need of protection due to physical abuse by their parents.
The parents supported this, while the maternal grandparents, who cared for the oldest child, sought a supervision order and access to the younger siblings.
The court found that a further order was necessary to protect the children's sibling and extended family relationships, as the parents were unlikely to facilitate access due to religious differences and animosity.
The court ordered 12-month supervision orders placing the oldest child with the grandparents and the younger children with the parents, with specified sibling and grandparent access.
