<p>There are 190 military chapels in England and Wales registered for marriages under
the rites of Church of England or otherwise, as described under sections 69 and 70
of the 1949 Marriage Act.</p><p>The Ministry of Defence allows same-sex marriages
in military chapels, but none of the Sending Churches using the chapels currently
allows same-sex marriages to be conducted there. I have asked the Chaplaincies of
the three Services to advise me on how Parliament's sanction of same sex-marriages
may be fully implemented.</p>
