The Ancient Order of Hibernians has apologised to me for the incident but is not convinced that the perpetrators were in good standing as members of the organisation.

The Human Rights Commission report will inform the deliberations of the working group, as will the All-Party Oireachtas Committee on the Constitution's report on the family and the deliberations of the Law Reform Commission on the rights and duties of cohabitants.
