They have held in many cases already that the child may stay with the parent who has residence in Ireland if the other parent is deported. The question will then be whether the splitting up of the family is a proportionate interference with the family members' Article 8 rights.
This is just bizarre enough to happen in Ireland
We will have a situation for a genuine loving married family to see each other,
they must first split up if the spouse is Irish, so one becomes a lone parent.
Ah...For the love of God, someone stop the madness.
Remember this is same Irish Law system that issued a ban on pregnant
girls travelling to England.
Honestly, you couldn't make this stuff up. Or maybe the idea is to
mock and ridicule the Irish Constitution.

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
Article 41
1° The State recognises the Family as the natural primary and fundamental unit group of Society, and as a moral institution possessing inalienable and imprescriptible rights, antecedent and superior to all positive law.
2° The State, therefore, guarantees to protect the Family in its constitution and authority, as the necessary basis of social order and as indispensable to the welfare of the Nation and the State.
