I am greatly relieved. I thought she was against everything. In respect of the reports from the Convention on the Constitution, it is planned to have a debate in the House on the first report in the last week of our sitting. The Government intends to comply with the four month deadline we have set ourselves to respond to each report so I expect in respect of the second report, which deals with the issue of marriage equality, that we will give a response within four months.

The question of a debate on the Quirke report can be discussed by the Whips. The issue of Bethany Home is still under consideration by the Minister and Minister of State.
