If a registrar forms the view an attempt is being made to have a marriage of convenience, is he or she required to inform the Garda Síochána immediately? It is the equivalent of an attempt at fraud. If this is the case and it happens on a number of occasions, it will dissuade others from attempting it. This would be the quickest way to ensure this provision in the legislation would not have to be used.
