"Referred", as it is used here, means this: Mr. Feeney was told (by Parliament) to go the High Court.
Mr. Feeney had told Parliament about his renunciation of British citizenship, but Parliament decided that they could not deal with the matter, so they told him to apply to/enquire at the High Court. "Referred to" means: advised to/told to go to another authority and ask there about the problem.
