editSurely this short and highly specific article should be merged into another article e.g. Civil partnership? Ben Finn 22:13, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

- The article covers both marriage and civil partnerships and would therefore have to be included in both articles, which is pretty daft. Anyway, the suggestion was not properly formatted nor appropriately tagged by the originating author and is, in any case, almost 2 years old.

Re "The surviving spouse is paid a proportion of their deceased spouse's pension": I don't believe this is true, or at least it is misleadingly incomplete. The new basic state pension does not include transfers between spouses or payments to spouses after death (except in some respects due to transitional arrangements from the previous rules). And workplace pension schemes may provide benefits to a named beneficiary who is not a spouse, equivalent to those of a spouse. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.252.78.59 (talk) 16:44, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
