The Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill received its Second Reading in the House of Commons on Tuesday 5 February, and the parliamentary process now moves into the Commons Committee stage. This includes an opportunity for all those with an interest in this proposed legislation to submit written evidence to the Public Bill Committee which will examine the Bill in detail.
We would encourage everyone to submit your views about the Bill in writing to the Committee.
Information about how to do this is available through the link below:

The Committee will meet for the first time on Tuesday 12 February, and will stop receiving written evidence at the end of the Committee stage on Tuesday 12 March 2013.
