Lord Ponsonby of Shulbrede (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 October 2024

Debate

Humanist Weddings

Contribution

The Government are not in favour of Satanist marriages. I think the noble Lord answers his own question: there are other groups that would claim that they have special beliefs which they would want to be reflected through potential secondary legislation. We do not think that is the way to go. We think we need to look at the question in the round, and that is what the Government intend to do.
