BNT v BNS (“BNT”) is significant for the fact that it is one out of two major Singapore decisions dealing with a foreigner parent seeking permanent relocation of the children overseas. In coming to her decision, Judith Prakash J overruled the trial judge’s decision and denied the mother permission to bring the children back to their home country, Canada. An analysis of the case is worthwhile, considering that in the earlier decision of AZB v AYZ [2012] 3 SLR 627, Andrew Ang J had granted the mother permission to relocate the children from Singapore to the United States of America. The divergent outcomes reflect the intensely factual analysis when applying s 125(2) of the Women’s Charter (Cap 353, 2009 Rev Ed).
