dc.description.abstractAnalyses the scheme relating to cohabitation outside marriage or civil partnership provided for in the Civil Partnership Bill 2009 Pt 15. Summarises, and identifies problems relating to, some of the provisions in Pt15, including the definitions of cohabitant and qualified cohabitant in s.170, the requirement of financial dependency underpinning the entitlement to financial redress for qualified cohabitants under ss.171, 172, 173 and 185, and the enforceability of cohabitant agreements. Notes conflict between the entitlement to financial provision and the principle of a clean break between the parties. Legislation Cited: Civil Partnership Bill 2009 s.170, s.171, s.172, s.173, s.185, s.199 (Ireland)
