Civil Partnerships
On the 5th December 2005 the Civil Partnership Act came into force. The Act enables same-sex couples to ‘marry’ and acquire similar rights as married couples. This is an unprecedented move in recognising same-sex relationships and affording them the respect and recognition that married couples have.
In order to qualify under the Act you must be of the same sex; not already parties to a civil partnership or marriage; over the age of 18 (or over 16 with the appropriate consent); and do not fall within the prohibited class of relationships, i.e. siblings, parents, adoptive chid/parent etc.
