Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court dismissed the guardian's appeal against the police's refusal to issue a personal passport including the minor's name. The applicant argued for an exception to the consent rule, but the court found no such exception applicable. Consequently, the decision was upheld because the statutory requirement for both guardians' consent remains mandatory for issuing such passports.

Lapsen huoltaja haki itselleen henkilökohtaista passia,

johon hän oli pyytänyt alaikäisen lapsensa merkitsemistä.

Koska lapsen toinen huoltaja ei ollut antanut suostumusta

merkintään, poliisilaitos hylkäsi passihakemuksen. Hallinto-oikeus

katsoi, että passilain 5 §:n 4 momentin mukainen

poikkeus huoltajien suostumusta edellyttävästä pääsäännöstä

ja sen mukainen menettelytapa tulee sovellettavaksi

ainostaan silloin, kun kyse on alaikäiselle myönnettävän

henkilökohtaisen passin epäämisestä ja hylkäsi valituksen

poliisilaitoksen päätöksestä.
