Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| A small minority of foreign marriages are conducted under circumstances which should raise our concern. Sometimes, for example, unfair pressure has been applied to one or both of the parties in order to get them to agree to contract the marriage. For this reason, our government should have the discretion not to legally recognise certain foreign marriages. |
