I have read all the documents and I did not see that legal uncertainty coming from anywhere except one view, which was perhaps slightly exaggerated. I am asking if there is a precedent for that anywhere else.
I do not see any uncertainty. Normally, the Oireachtas legislates if it is not in the Constitution. It seemed to be taking things a bit far.
