The Law Commission has undertaken a review of elements of the law in this area and published its report on Matrimonial Property, Needs and Agreements last year, following wide consultation. The review looked in particular at the treatment of nuptial agreements, financial needs and matrimonial property in financial relief cases. The Government is carefully considering the Law Commission’s recommendations and will respond in due course.
