The legal age rises to 18 in England and Wales to crack down on forced marriage

 In a bid to curb forced marriage, England and Wales raise legal age

Until now, those aged 16 or 17 could get married with parental consent as there was no law against ceremonies for younger children not registered as vulnerable with their local councils

A new law raising the legal age for marriage in England and Wales to 18 years has come into force on Monday, aimed at protecting vulnerable young people from being forced into weddings against their will.
Until now, those aged 16 or 17 could get married with parental consent as there was no law against ceremonies for younger children not registered as vulnerable with their local councils.
The new law was welcomed by charities campaigning against forced marriages, an issue largely affecting some sections of the South Asian and African communities in the UK.
&ldquo;This law will better protect vulnerable young people, by cracking down on forced marriage in our society,&rdquo; said Dominic Raab, UK Deputy Prime Minister and Secretary of State for Justice.
&ldquo;Those who act to manipulate children into marrying under-age will now rightly face the full force of the law,&rdquo; he said.
Those found guilty of arranging child marriages face sentences of up to seven years in prison.
So-called &ldquo;traditional&rdquo; and non-legally binding ceremonies viewed as marriages by the parties and their families conducted within some minority communities will also be covered under the new legislation.
The UK government said the age of 18 is widely recognised as the age at which one becomes an adult and gains full citizenship rights.
Previously forced marriage was only an offence if the person used a type of coercion, for example threats, to cause someone to marry.
It is now an offence to cause a child under the age of 18 to enter a marriage in any circumstances, without the need to prove that a form of coercion was used.
&ldquo;The change to legislation on child marriage is a huge victory for survivors. It is a huge leap forward to tackling this usually hidden abuse and will provide a greater degree of protection to those at risk,&rdquo; said Natasha Rattu, Director of the Karma Nirvana charity, which supports forced marriage victims.
&ldquo;Last year, the national Honour Based Abuse helpline supported 64 cases of child marriage, representing only a small picture of a much bigger problem. We hope that the new law will help to increase identification and reporting, affording greater protection to children at risk,&rdquo; she said.
Child marriage is often associated with domestic abuse towards girls, leaving education early, limited career opportunities, and serious physical and mental health problems.
The UK government said the legal change honours its commitment to the pledge made to the United Nations to end child marriage by 2030.
The new Marriage and Civil Partnership (Minimum Age) Act 2022, which gained Royal Assent in April last year and comes into force this week, was the result of a Private Member&rsquo;s Bill brought to Parliament by Conservative Party MP Pauline Latham and was supported by campaign organisations within the Girls Not Brides Coalition, which work to end child marriage and so-called honour-based abuse.
&ldquo;This is a landmark day for the campaigners who have worked relentlessly for over five years to ban child marriage in this country. Child marriage destroys lives and through this legislation we will protect millions of boys and girls over the coming years from this scourge,&rdquo; said Latham.
UK Minister for Safeguarding, Sarah Dines added: &ldquo;Forced marriage is an abuse of human rights, which denies vulnerable children the freedom to learn, grow and thrive. Like all other forms of abuse, I&rsquo;m committed to stamping out this exploitative practice.
&ldquo;In addition to this welcome new legislation, we are also continuing to provide training and guidance to equip the police, social workers and other frontline professionals to support and safeguard victims.&rdquo; According to official data from 2021, the UK government&rsquo;s Forced Marriage Unit (FMU) provided advice or support in 118 cases involving victims below 18 years of age. The courts have also issued 3,343 Forced Marriage Protection Orders between their introduction in 2008 and September 2022, which prevents someone from using threats, violence or emotional abuse as a way to force a person into marriage.
The new Act does not change the age of marriage in Scotland or Northern Ireland as marriage is a devolved matter.
It is hoped that raising the legal age to 18 in England and Wales may eventually be replicated in other parts of the United Kingdom.

"I feel incredibly fortunate to have realised my dream of playing the sport I love.
"It has truly given me some of the best moments of my life. The highest of highs over 17 seasons, that will be impossible to replicate, no matter what the next chapter has in store for me."
The Los Angeles FC forward, who previously played for Southampton, Tottenham and Real Madrid, made his final competitive appearance during Wales' World Cup group-stage fixture with England on November 29.

FIFA World cup 2022&nbsp; : 64 years of wait finally came to an end as Wales would be playing on football&rsquo;s biggest stage in <a href="https://www.editorji.com/topic/fifa-world-cup-2022-1599158864528367">FIFA World Cup 2022</a> for the first time since 1958. The culmination of a decade of gradual improvement that has coincided with the presence of one of the world's best players, Gareth Bale who was once football&rsquo;s most expensive player when he joined Real Madrid for 100 million euros (then $132 million) in 2013, has helped drag Wales into the last two European Championships &mdash; the team reached the semifinals of Euro 2016 &mdash; and now into its first World Cup in 64 years.
<h3>FIFA World cup : Wales Team News</h3>
It's a tournament that Wales greats like Ryan Giggs, Ian Rush, Mark Hughes and Neville Southall never reached. One that looked increasingly beyond even Bale, whose club career is winding down after leaving Madrid to move to MLS team Los Angeles FC in June. Regularly hit by injuries, the 33-year-old forward continues to save his best performances for his national team. This may yet be his final flourish at international level. Wales isn't all about Bale.
Rob Page, their new manager will hope experienced midfielder Aaron Ramsey &mdash; another injury-prone player &mdash; can stay healthy enough to play all the games in the group stage, while 21-year-old Brennan Johnson is a talented forward in his first season in the Premier League with Nottingham Forest.
Daniel James will be one of the quickest players in the tournament, but the Fulham winger often lacks the end product to make the most of space he can create for himself.
Otherwise, Page has a squad of players mostly spread around England's lower leagues.

The health secretary in the UK announced that all opioid medicines will now carry prominent warnings on their labels saying they can cause addiction.
The decision came after figures in England and Wales revealed a-more-than 60% increase in prescriptions for opioid painkillers in the last decade.
Health experts have welcomed the move, saying opioids can cause "life-altering and sometimes fatal addictions".
The Department of Health said that opioids, such as morphine or fentanyl, are derived from opium and can be highly effective for managing severe pain but they can also be highly addictive.
