Rights for separating cohabitants…

…the debate continues!

The Government’s decision not to give any financial rights to the weaker party when a cohabiting couple separate (see ‘No change in cohabiting law‘ post) has obviously caused concern in some quarters.  I see that the matter was debated on Woman’s Hour on Radio 4 on Friday 23 September.  I hope that the issue will not go away and that at some point before too long the Government will succumb to pressure and reconsider.
