Our second petition is No. 00006/21 entitled "The right to marry" by Mr. Colm O'Keeffe.

The secretariat advises that the correspondence from the Department of Justice has been forwarded to Mr. O'Keeffe and that it has advised him that there are no plans to amend the law to provide for the indissolubility of any marriage. The secretariat further advises that the committee deems this petition closed as nothing further can be done to assist this petitioner. Do members have any view or are they in agreement with the secretariat's advice?
