Even under the previous law, the ban on marriage during the waiting period - a woman was not supposed to re-marry within ten months of the dissolution or annulment of her previous marriage, unless she had given birth to a child in the meantime - was hardly ever applied anyway, as the registry offices granted an exemption almost without exception. The inappropriate ban on marriage during the prescribed waiting period has been eliminated for this reason.
