"To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport how many officials in her Department are working on allowing same-sex couples to convert their civil partnerships to marriages."Helen Grant, the responsible minister, answered:
"DCMS has approximately nine full-time equivalent policy and legal staff working on implementing the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act 2013. The new procedures and processes required specifically for the conversion of civil partnerships into marriages are the responsibility of a number of other Departments."This is the power of the British state at work destroying marriage and the family now that the same-sex marriage legislation has been passed by Parliament.
Rather than become despondent, however, it is a call to us to give witness to the truth about marriage. In particular, we must defend children in schools, who will be subjected to brainwashing, distortions, and political correctness. We must ensure that children receive the truth about marriage and sexuality. In this connection, readers are encouraged to apply for SPUC's question-and-answer paper on same-sex marriage and homosexuality in schools - please email me at johnsmeaton@spuc.org.uk
