I intend to press it, but the Minister did not respond to my question on the consummation of marriage. There are people who will choose an annulment over a divorce because of their religious beliefs. They can get annulments on the grounds of the non-consummation of their marriages. Will that situation be affected by this change? If so, in what way? It must have implications.
