In February 2018, the United Kingdom and Scottish governments began reviewing civil partnerships.[3] In June 2018, the Supreme Court ruled that allowing only same-sex couples to enter a civil partnership is incompatible with the European Convention on Human Rights.[4] The UK Government later pledged to allow opposite-sex couples in England and Wales to enter into civil partnerships,[5] and legislation enabling this passed the Parliament in March 2019 and went into effect on 26 May 2019.[6] The Secretary of State is required to issue regulations allowing opposite-sex civil partnerships by 31 December 2019.[7] The same reforms will soon be extended to Scotland and Northern Ireland too.
