Same Sex Civil Marriage consultation.

Lynne Featherstone announced on 17 September that a public consultation to consider how to make civil marriage available to same-sex couples will begin in March 2012. This would allow any legislative changes to be made before the end of this parliament. The consultation will cover civil marriage for same-sex couples only - not religious marriage or opposite-sex civil partnerships. As and when we receive details of the proposed consultation I'll let you know.
