An Bille um an Séú Leasú is Fiche ar an mBunreacht, 2002: An Dara Céim. Twenty-sixth Amendment of the Constitution Bill, 2002: Second Stage.
I referred earlier to the improvement in our quality of life. As European citizens we have obtained improved rights through EU legislation. For example, employment equality, maternity and minimum wage legislation have brought improvements. Everyone must accept responsibility for the debacle of the vote in the last Nice referendum but most responsibility lies with the current Government which failed to lead and conducted a campaign of utter confusion as proven by the last minute delivery of the information leaflet to households.
