Civil Marriage: Motion
4:00 pm
Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)
As the motion from the Independent Senators points out, it was my distinguished predecessor, Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, who in 1993 introduced the ground-breaking legislation to decriminalise homosexuality in this country. Senator Norris played a signal part in the evolution of the law in this area but she deserves credit for introducing the legislation.
