"Giving all couples equal marriage rights under the law does not threaten anyone’s beliefs, religious or otherwise.

"Churches are free to define marriage as they wish but the state has a duty to treat all citizens equally.

"The Assembly needs to send out a clear message to the LGB&T community that it will support their rights particularly in the light of the disgraceful comments by the health minister in South Down on Thursday night."
