STATUS OF CHILDREN ACT 1996 - SECT 28
Orders made against children under 18 years of age
28 Orders made against children under 18 years of age
(1) This section applies if a parentage testing order or an order under
section 27 requires a medical procedure or other act to be carried out in
relation to a child who is under 18 years of age.
(2) The procedure or act
must not be carried out in relation to the child under the order unless a
parent or guardian of the child consents to the medical procedure or act being
carried out.
(3) However, the Court may draw such inferences from a failure
or refusal to consent as appear just in the circumstances.
