Paragraph 4 Modification of the Civil Partnership Act 2004

Section 116 of the Civil Partnership Act 2004^f1, insofar as it continues to have effect despite its repeal, does so as though it were modified as follows—

(a)

in subsection (1), paragraph (b) and the word “, and” immediately preceding it were omitted;

(b)

subsection (4) were omitted;

(c)

after subsection (4) there were inserted—

“(4A)
Subsections (5) to (7) apply where the procurator fiscal has decided that no criminal proceedings are to be taken in respect of the facts and circumstances which gave rise to the arrest under section 114(4).”;

(d)

in subsection (5), for “subsection (1)” there were substituted “subsection (4A)”.
