<p>The Law Commission report published on 19 July 2022 did not consider the question
of whether non-religious belief organisations, including Humanists, should be able
to conduct legally binding weddings. The report contains 57 recommendations for legislative
reform .</p><p>We must now take the time to consider the Law Commission’s recommendations
fully. As has been set out in Parliament, marriage will always be one of our most
important institutions, and we have a duty to consider the implications of any changes
to the law in this area very carefully, including balancing the needs and interests
of all groups. We will publish a response to the report in due course</p>
