What is a section 91(14) Order?

This is an Order that can be made under the Children Act 1989 which restricts individuals from making further applications without first obtaining the court’s permission. The Order acts as a protective bar designed to prevent unnecessary, disruptive, or abusive applications in child-related proceedings which puts the child or another individual at risk of harm.

A Court is able to make a section 91(14) Order on its own motion, or following an application by either party.
