  "long_title": "Part 2 of this Order contains article 3 which amends Schedule 20 to the Civil Partnership Act 2004 (“the Act”). Schedule 20 specifies certain overseas relationships that may be treated as civil partnerships for the purposes of the Act. Paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) add references to the names for the relationship under other official language(s) of the country or territory in question. Paragraph (a) of article 3 adds the Dutch and German expressions in relation to Belgium, paragraph (b) adds the French name in relation to Quebec and paragraph (c) adds the Swedish in relation to Finland. Paragraphs (d) and (e) of article 3 rectify two typographical errors relating to a “pacte civil de solidarité” (civil solidarity pact in France), and a “geregistreerd partnerschap” (registered partnership in the Netherlands). Paragraph (f) omits the translations previously given.",
