What will change with regard to children in our relationship?

It will become possible to acquire parental responsibility in relation to children if you become their step-parent.

The Children Act is further amended so that in certain circumstances a civil partner is allowed to apply for a residence or contact order. The Adoption Act is also amended by the new legislation in complex but beneficial ways.
