Operative part of the judgment
Article 11(3) of Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 of 27 November 2003 concerning jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in matrimonial matters and the matters of parental responsibility, repealing Regulation (EC) No 1347/2000, read in the light of Article 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union,
must be interpreted as precluding a piece of national legislation which confers on authorities that are not courts the power to obtain automatic suspension, for a period of at least two months, of the enforcement of a return decision handed down on the basis of the Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, concluded at the Hague on 25 October 1980, without having to provide reasons for their request for suspension.
