Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [HL]

May I supplement that answer? First, there are the child abduction arrangements, which I believe the Republic of India is now fully signed up to. Secondly, proposed new Section 63B on the contents of orders is very broad. It empowers the court to make an order with, "““such prohibitions, restrictions or requirements; and such other terms; as the court considers appropriate for the purposes of the order””." It continues: "““The terms of such orders may, in particular, relate to—conduct outside England and Wales as well as (or instead of) conduct within England and Wales””." It therefore has a reach beyond this country, but of course it will not work completely unless there is matching legislation, which can be enforced—this is also key—in other countries such as India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. There is real interest in all three countries. Two of those countries have recently passed some amending legislation, which is not the same as this legislation, but I am encouraged by the moves that are being made there.
