I want the Minister to clarify the position in respect of this matter and indicate whether we have moved beyond the issue of family law, with regard to which the European Court of Justice had no jurisdiction. What will be the effect of this section on the Equal Status Act as a result of the removal of marital status? This is a matter of genuine concern.
