  "long_title": "This Order, which applies to Wales, makes amendments to various provisions of subordinate legislation. The amendments are consequential upon the Civil Partnership Act 2004 (c. 33) (“the Act”). The Act, which comes into force on the same date as this Order, enables same-sex couples to form a civil partnership by registering as civil partners of each other (and certain overseas relationships registered abroad may be treated as civil partnerships). The Act makes provision for civil partners to be treated in the same way as spouses in relation to benefits and obligations.",
