Indeed, albeit "fulsome" is not a word I like as it actually has a pejorative meaning which the Leas-Chathaoirleach does not intend in this instance. We need to discuss why the first significant Government policy since the redefinition of marriage in 2015 is about making it easier to bring a marriage to an end. When are we going to discuss what we can to proactively as a society to promote not just marriage but life-long marriage and to promote as a specific social good the long-term union of men and women for the upbringing of children?
