I move amendment No. 13:

In page 9, line 21, to delete “section 10 or 11.” and substitute the following:“section 10 or 11, provided that paragraph (b) shall cease to have effect in respect of an applicant who is in an existing marriage or civil partnership where either:
(i) an Act to Amend the Constitution is passed the effect of which is to permit two persons of the same gender to marry or to allow or require the Oireachtas to pass legislation the effect of which is to permit two persons of the same gender to marry, or

(ii) an Act of the Oireachtas is passed the effect of which is to permit two persons of the same gender to marry, whichever is earlier.”.
