Converting civil partnership to marriage in Scotland

10th December 2014

Rachael Kelsey attended the Equality Network AGM. So much work has been done over the last year to bring about equality and improve the human rights situation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and Intersex (LGBTI) people in Scotland. One of the highlights will arrive on Tuesday (16th December 2014) when Civil Partners can convert their partnership to marriage! And Hogmanay will be even more special than usual in Scotland this year, with the first marriages taking place across the country. There's still work to be done with implementation of the Marriage and Civil Partnership (Scotland) Act 2014 and the next big issue on the agenda for coming years is the equal recognition campaign- to protect the human rights of trans and intersex people. SKO send thanks to all at the Equality Network for their amazing work for equality and human rights! http://www.equality-network.org/
