The motion
That this House welcomes the first year anniversary of civil partnership registrations in Northern Ireland (19th December 2006), Scotland and Wales (20th December 2006) and England (21st December 2006); notes that the Civil Partnership Act 2004 has given hundreds of thousands of same-sex couples the same legal protection, particularly in pensions and inheritance rights, as heterosexual couples; and recognises the dedicated campaigning work of all those involved in fighting for equality for all, regardless of their sexual orientation.
