Proceeding contribution from Mark Pritchard (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Family Justice.


Family Justice

I welcome some of what the Secretary of State has laid before the House, particularly his comment about lifting the veil. Given that the Government are conceding more divorce and matrimonial matters to sharia councils, may I ask what provisions have been made and what consultations have taken place with the Islamic community, and whether there is any overlap between what he has said today and statements from that community?
