Proceeding contribution from Nicholas Winterton (Conservative) 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]
May I ask a delicate and sensitive question of the Solicitor-General? What is she prepared to do about what is clearly the physical abuse, and perhaps even rape, of a young girl who has been compelled to enter a forced marriage? Is that a subject about which the Solicitor-General is concerned? I am deeply worried about what we can do about what has been done to a young woman.
