BILL
to
This bill aims to give unmarried couples who live together (cohabitants) more legal rights and protections. Currently, these couples have fewer rights than married couples; this bill would give them similar protections for things like pensions, property, and inheritance.
Presented by Lord Marks of Henley-on-Thames.
