—(1) An application cannot be made to a Kadi or Naib Kadi for the solemnisation of the marriage of a minor without the consent of the appropriate person or persons mentioned in the Fourth Schedule.(2) If a Kadi or Naib Kadi is satisfied that the consent of an appropriate person mentioned in the Fourth Schedule cannot be obtained by reason of that person being absent, inaccessible or under any disability, the Kadi or Naib Kadi —(a)must dispense with the consent of that person, if the consent of any other person is required; and(b)may dispense with the consent of that person, if the consent of no other person is required.(3) If an appropriate person mentioned in the Fourth Schedule refuses to give that person’s consent, a Kadi or Naib Kadi may, on an application to the Kadi or Naib Kadi, dispense with the consent of that person.(4) Before dispensing with the consent of a person mentioned in subsection (3), the Kadi or Naib Kadi must give that person an opportunity to show cause why that person’s consent should not be dispensed with.
