Asked
What discussions she has had with Cabinet colleagues on conversion between civil partnership and marriage.
Reply
In 2019, when civil partnerships were made available for opposite-sex couples in England and Wales, the Government ran a public consultation on the future of conversion rights between marriage and civil partnerships for both opposite-sex and same-sex couples in England and Wales. We recognise the importance of people being able to formalise their relationships in the way they want, with the person they love. We are giving this matter careful consideration and will update the House in due course.
Asked
If she will make an assessment of the potential impact of trends in the length of paternity leave taken by men on women.
Reply
It is really important that parents are able to spend sufficient time with their children without it negatively affecting their careers.The Parental Rights Survey found that 70% of employee fathers took Paternity Leave.More work needs to be done to support working parents, and we have committed to a review of the parental leave system. Work is underway planning its delivery.The Employment Rights Bill will make Parental and Paternity Leave ‘day one’ rights, bringing 1.5 million parents into scope for Parental Leave, and 32,300 into scope for Paternity Leave.
