proposals to allow mixed-sex couples the option of a civil partnership: (OQ.134/2019)

Further to the consultation, which was undertaken on the future of civil partnerships, will the Minister outline when proposals to allow mixed-sex couples the option of a civil partnership will be brought to the Assembly?

Connétable L. Norman of St. Clement (The Minister for Home Affairs):

I hope and indeed expect that a draft amendment law will be brought before the Assembly by the middle of next year.
