Asked

Whether she has had discussions with the Secretary of State for Justice on legally binding humanist marriages in England and Wales.

I pay tribute to my Hon. Friend for her long-standing work in support of humanist issues, and I am aware that humanists have long been campaigning for legally binding humanist weddings. The Law Commission published a report on weddings in July 2022 containing 57 recommendations to reform weddings law. We are considering these recommendations and will confirm our position in the coming months.
