Formal notice of intent to temporarily relocate for recovery if reunification occurs.
I. What Happened
On 1 July 2025, the applicant issued a Notice of Intent stating unequivocally that, should the Family Court see fit to reunify her with her children, she would be removing them—temporarily but emphatically—from the jurisdiction that proved itself incapable of protective neutrality.
This was not a flight.
It was the administrative prelude to recovery.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
• Procedural breaches: removal without proportionate grounds, denial of contact, and obstruction of lawful filings
• Human impact: cumulative trauma necessitating departure
• Power dynamics: the state’s presumption of its own indispensability to recovery
• Institutional failure: the notion that healing can occur in the same environment that caused the injury
What is not acceptable:
That families must negotiate their own right to rest after procedural warfare.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because announcing the intention to leave is a declaration of both exhaustion and resolve.
Because clarity of purpose is the last refuge of those no longer persuaded by institutional courtesies.
Because the archive must record not only what was done to a family—but what they were forced to do next.
IV. Violations
• UN Convention on the Rights of the Child — Article 9 (right to family life without undue interference)
• Equality Act 2010 — Section 149 (public sector equality duty)
• ECHR Article 8 — respect for private and family life
V. SWANK’s Position
This was not evasion.
This was the jurisprudence of protective withdrawal.
⟡ We do not accept that recovery is possible in the precincts of bureaucratic harm.
⟡ We do not accept that procedural compliance obliges permanent presence.
We will document every departure—because leaving is the last word of agency.
