Baroness Burt of Solihull (LD)
My Lords, what advice do the Government have for humanist couples who are waiting to be wed and have heard that there is going to be a fourth consultation, as well as the introduction of complex and potentially controversial marriage law ahead of this much-needed change? What assurance can they offer to couples that humanists will soon have the choice of getting married in line with their beliefs, the same as their religious counterparts?
Baroness Levitt (Lab)
The assurance is that we have made the commitment and it is going to happen.
