The matter raised by the Deputy concerns the notice period with respect to marriages and the implications arising from the need to reschedule proposed marriage dates due to the impact of Covid-19 public health restrictions.
The General Register Office has contacted the parties to explain the opportunities available to them within the legal framework of the Civil Registration Act 2004 to facilitate the parties' postponed date of marriage. Contact has also been made with the local marriage registrar to facilitate the marriage once the couple have settled on a new marriage date.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
