Bringing my brother on holiday

This may be a stupid question but I can't find any information online

I will be bringing my 10 year old brother to Paris in December. We both have the same surname but will I need a letter written by my mother allowing me to bring him for legal reasons?

Thanks

You might need a letter to get home, Doubt irish airline would stop you flying to Paris. Assuming you're an adult.

The irish embassy in Paris number is +33144176700
They'd be best placed to answer a query

I'm in no way a lawyer, but if I'm travelling with my niece (without her parents), I get a letter signed by both of them saying that give permission for me to bring the child to x or y country, and to authorise any necessary emergency medical procedures for the duration.

I've never needed it, but if, for example, niece broke her arm or something while we were away together, you wouldn't want to have to wait for her parents to join us before it could be treated, or faff about trying to get proper permission long distance.
