# The Adoption Agencies (Scotland) Regulations 2009, Paragraph 8: Right to apply for a variation of the permanence order


Any person who had parental rights and responsibilities in respect of the child immediately before the permanence order was made which were removed by the making of that permanence order may apply to the court for leave to make an application for a variation of certain provisions in the permanence order. The right also applies to any person who claims an interest, the local authority which made the application, the child (if they are over 12 or are capable of understanding the effect of the order) and any person who has had parental rights and responsibilities conferred on them by virtue of the permanence order.
