I am hoping to emigrate to Australia with my 11 year old daughter. My ex husband won't allow me to take her and I would really like some advice on what my next step would be. I have tried writing to him as we can't communicate properly over this. I have offered a couple of trips back per year for my daughter but he hasnt responded. I assume therefore it would be the legal route.

That's right. Your former husband will have parental responsibility for your daughter, and if he refuses to consent to you removing her permanently from the UK there is no alternative to an application to the Court for leave. If your plans are well thought out there is no reason to suspect that the application would be refused.
