It is with some satisfaction and relief that I can say that Civil Partnership legislation has just been brought forward for debate and passage in the Dail (Irish Parliament). http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091203/ap_on_re_eu/eu_ireland_gay_marriage_1 http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2009/1204/1224260043897.html
