Schedule 4 - Effect on marriage
Gender Recognition Bill [Lords]
10:30 am
Mr Andrew Selous (South West Bedfordshire, Conservative)
I agree with the Minister that the vast majority of transsexual people will not want to cause problems. They will want to get on with the religious bodies that they join. We are talking about only a vexatious minority, as in the Diane Parry case. If what the Minister is saying is true—the legal advice that I have seen differs from that—will he give a guarantee that the Diane Parry case would still have been won by the Church in question if the Bill had been enacted?
