Proceeding contribution from Bridget Prentice (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [Lords].


Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [Lords]

I hope that I can give the hon. Lady some assurance by saying that we will be discussing the issue with the Scottish Executive. My understanding is that they hope to introduce similar legislation later this year, and we will certainly encourage them to do so.
