[1] This case involves twins who were born in Northern Ireland in November 2012. They were admitted to care on a voluntary basis on 25 January 2013. An interim care order was made on 4 March 2013 and threshold criteria were agreed and then approved by the court on 14 February 2014.
[2] The father of the twins is a citizen of the United States of America. The mother is a citizen of South Africa (but she may also hold an Irish passport). The twins are US citizens and applications have been made on their behalf for US passports.
• The fact that threshold criteria have been conceded does not lead inevitably to a care order being made.
• The mother may seek to be reassessed and reconsidered as a potential carer to whom the twins may be returned.
• The Rs have not been assessed or approved in any way � beyond spending one week in Northern Ireland in October 2013 they have had no contact with the twins.
