One of the case is the litigation concerning the Polish and UK jurisdiction. The participants of the debate will be David Simmonds, MP: International child abduction.

The case is complex from the litigation and enforcement perspective in so much that the case was initiated before Brexit and the enforcement phase was after Brexit, hence there is debate on the application and continuity of the EU provisions of court judgment enforcement.
