Equal marriage

Asked if Maria Miller had warned the Church of England that the Government was going to do something it didn’t want, the PMS said it was not true to say we had not properly discussed proposals with the Church. This was part of the consultation process. Before the proposals were finalised, government officials had met the Church at senior levels. The discussions with the Church had been quite specific about the quadruple lock. The Church put forward their points regarding legal provisions, and the Government then announced its final position. The PMS said discussions were ongoing with the Church and other organisations in order to take the proposals forward.
