Why does a local authority need to employ marriage celebrants? They don’t employ vicars, ministers, priests, rabbis etc., all of whom are licensed to perform weddings. Celebrants should be private operators, charge a fee for service and marry whom they wish. I doubt anyone expects a Catholic Priest to marry a gay couple, why should a celebrant be different?
