First step is email your ex with a deadline to reply saying you are planning on taking child out of the country and you will need passports prior.
If you dont then get a reply you have reason for the special issue app.
I’d email now and give her till next Thursday. If no response then get application off next friday

Hello all,
I am back again for some advise, my ex is wanting the passport for son. I have refused advising there needs to be something legal in place which says she will return this as there is trust issues there obviously. She has said she is going to apply to the family and I am wondering If I have to pay any of these costs as she saying I will have to please.
Thank you

Thank you
Whats the reason for wanting them?
Let her apply, it's a threat.
Wait and see what hear application is for, if it's a specific issue order for passport only or a holiday, then you could always just turn up without paying a thing and LIP.
Did you manage to go on ur holiday yet?
She sounds like she is just causing drama if she won't give you a reason why, just ignore her.
If she doesn't give you a very detailed and specific reason in writing why she needs it, then she doesn't need it.
She
She said she has booked a holiday and needed the passport. Of course I want him to go away with both of us, I just don't believe she will give me it back and this is why I don't want to give it her.
Yes we went on our holiday in July.
She should provide evidence of all foreign holidays.
If she can show you that you'll probably need to hand them over.

Hello there,
My ex has applied for a specific issue order please see email from her solicitor below,
You may recall that I represented ex in respect of previous proceeding concerning your son.
I understand that you have possession of sons passport and I have been told by ex you will not return it to her so that that son travel to xxxx for a holiday with his.mother. despite the passport being given to you to take son on holiday. Unless I receive confirmation by 12 noon on Thursday 16th January that you will return passport to ex when you next return son to her care then we will apply for a specific issues order that ex has possession of passport other than for the duration of any holiday that she agrees for son spending time with you. An application for costs will also be made against you, I trust this will not be necessary.
First of she has lied, it was me who applied for the passport and retrieved it. I never refused to give her the passport either, I explained there needs to be something legal in place so I am assured she will give it back as I believe she will keep it. Is there any advice on next steps please?

Does your CAO not make statements about one parent notifying the other of planned holidays? If so why not let her have it, give her the required notice when you're due to go on holiday and then keep it until she next does the same so it becomes a back and forth with the passport.
Right now it's been with you for what, eight months?
Passports become part of the battleground, they symbolise something weighty.
I'm guessing the current order doesn't say anything about passports, is that right? It doesn't matter who sent for or bought the passport, but if it's her court ordered holiday time and she has a holiday booked you'd be expected to let her have the passport. The court will order you to give it to her as part of a specific issues application as they prioritise holidays for a child. Unless you think there's a risk she could abduct the child to that country (is that where she's from?) and then you'd need to put a prohibited steps order in yourself. I took out the name of the country from your post so it doesn't identify you.
if you have a court order regarding passports, then follow it, but she won't just be able to ring the airport and stop you flying. If you have a court order, take a copy with you for your holiday, unless she has a court order or prohibited steps order that supersedes it, she wont be able to stop you or your child from boarding a legitimate flight.
