Civil Partnerships, Marriages and Deaths (Registration etc) Bill - Third Reading

House of Lords, 7 March 2019.

Baroness Hodgson of Abinger (Conservative)

My Lords, I thank colleagues across the House who participated in the Bill’s progress. The three debates were excellent and I am grateful to my colleagues for ensuring the Bill’s safe passage through the House. I also thank officials in the Whips’ Office and on the Bill team, especially Linda Edwards, for their help. We return the Bill to the other place, where I hope it will be considered at the earliest opportunity to get these important measures on to the statute book. I beg to move.

Bill passed and sent to the Commons.
