After centuries of conflict, the Good Friday Agreement indicated to the world on a legal basis that we had created a path out of conflict which involved upholding and respecting people's identity, allegiances and rights. The worry is that this aspect of the agreement is dissipating in front of our eyes. There are significant concerns about the rights of citizens' partners. What is the Government's view on that? What can it do? The Tánaiste has spoken about the provision of funding to some extent to uphold citizens' rights. Are there other measures that the Government intends to take in respect of this matter?
