No... If an order is silent regarding international travel or relocation then S65Y applies...
You can either have the new consent order application amended to include the relocation (that would be best) or have a separate dated document signed by both parents regarding the relocation..
Be aware that as you are seeking sole parental responsibility, there is a *possibility* that the court registrar who's job it is to confirm the order & stamp it may have questions around why SPR needs to be granted...
Also... "as agreed between the parties" is way to too vague... It needs to set out the times & that you intend to cover flight costs
Also...When you have the final stamped order, you should have the order registered in France
My ex husband didn't want the visitation timings to be documented as he said it will be too restrictive for him. I can push to include something high level like: "3 weeks out of the summer school holiday and 4 weeks to be spread over the remaining school holidays to be agreed by the father in advance".
Is the need for SPR is questioned, I am not sure that we have a good answers. It's just easier for me to manage my daughters decisions given that she only sees her father 7 weeks per year and he's generally uninterested in making decisions. Trying to get him to look at schools was like pulling teeth until I just ended up doing it all myself. He tends to "go with the flow" rather than proactively manage anything. I don't believe these are credible reasons for SPR though. Certainly SPR would be easier if we were in France.
In summary, it looks like I still need to call out the international relocation in the consent order DESPITE it already saying that I can relocate out of NSW. My next challenge is getting the French to give my daughter a visa as they will need proof of sole responsibility so yes, registering the orders with the French is something I will do assuming I can negotiate this move with my ex husband.
