CUSTODY OF CHILDREN ACT 1891 - SECT 2

Power to Court to order repayment of costs of bringing up child.

2. If at the time of the application for a writ or order for the production of
the child, the child is being brought up by another person, or is boarded out
by the guardians of a poor law union, ... the Court may, in its discretion, if
it orders the child to be given up to the parent, further order that the
parent shall pay to such person, or to the guardians of such poor law union,
... the whole of the costs properly incurred in bringing up the child, or such
portion thereof as shall seem to the Court to be just and reasonable, having
regard to all the circumstances of the case.
