The Court approved the parties' mediated consent arrangement and ordered return because the child was habitually resident in Japan, the Father's custody rights under Japanese law were being exercised, the retention in Hong Kong was wrongful and less than one year had elapsed, and no Convention defence applied; the consent order was in the child's best interests.
