Family Procedure (Modification of Enactments) Order 2005

My Lords, when I first looked at the Forthcoming Business and saw that these three orders were expected to take 45 minutes to debate, I thought that some serious issues would arise from them. I was therefore a little surprised, having read the draft orders and the helpful accompanying Explanatory Memoranda, that there was nothing to argue about. That now seems to be the case. It is plain that these amendments are minor ones consequential mainly on the Adoption and Children Act 2002 and, to a lesser extent, on the Civil Partnership Act 2004. In the circumstances, I am happy to see them go through.
