    Post-Enactment Report Marriage Act 2015 (No. 35 of 2015) (Dáil Éireann – Standing Order 164A) (Seanad Éireann – Standing Order 168) April 2019 Post Enactment Report Marriage Act 2015 (No. 35 of 2015) 1. Background to the Marriage Act 2015 A Constitutional Convention was established in 2012 to consider the question of whether an amendment should be made to the Constitution of Ireland to provide for marriage of same- sex couples. The Convention reported on that question in July 2013, and made 3 main recommendations: 1. That the Constitution be changed to allow for civil marriage for same-sex couples. 2. That an amendment be directive. 3. That further legislative change be made in the law on parentage, guardianship and upbringing of children. Almost 80% of the membership favoured changing the Constitution to allow for civil marriage for same-sex couples. The Government decided to hold a referendum on the question of allowing marriage to be contracted by two persons without distinction as to their sex. The Thirty-fourth Amendment of the Constitution (Marriage Equality) Bill 2015 proposed to insert the following section after section 3 of Article 41 of the Constitution: “4 Marriage may be contracted in accordance with law by two persons without distinction as to their sex.” The marriage equality referendum was held on 22 May 2015 and had a turnout of 61% of the electorate. The referendum was passed by 62% of voters which meant Ireland became the first sovereign state to extend marriage rights to same-sex couples by popular vote. Only one constituency returned a negative vote.

  • Republic of Ireland
    Update - IRELAND REPUBLIC OF IRELAND Prof. Geoffrey Shannon February 2021 A. New Developments in the field of Divorce (since September 2002) Introduction Article 41.3.2 of the Irish 1937 Constitution provided that ‘no law shall be enacted providing for the granting of the dissolution of marriage’. Following a referendum on 24 November 1995 the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution Act 1995 was passed.1 As a result, Article 41.3.2 of the Constitution was replaced and the Family Law (Divorce) Act 1996 was introduced enabling the Irish courts to grant a decree of divorce. That said, it is often forgotten in the Irish context that from 1922 to 1937 there was no specific prohibition on the granting of divorce decrees in Ireland. Since the last national report, there have been very significant changes in Irish family law in general, and the divorce jurisdiction in particular. Same-sex marriage The Irish Constitution was assumed to contain an implicit prohibition on same-sex marriage. The Thirty-fourth Amendment of the Constitution (Marriage Equality) Act 2015 (previously Bill No. 5 of 2015) amended the Constitution of Ireland to permit marriage to be contracted by two persons without distinction as to their sex.2 It was approved by a referendum on 22 May 2015 by a margin of 62% of voters on a turnout of 61%. This was the first time that a state legalised same-sex marriage through a popular vote. At a practical level, same-sex marriage was introduced in Ireland in November 2015 by the Marriage Act 2015, which came into force on 16 November 2015.3 The first same-sex marriage ceremony was celebrated the next day in Clonmel, County Tipperary.

  • Changing Conceptions of Marriage in Ireland: Law and Practice
    CHANGING CONCEPTIONS OF MARRIAGE IN IRELAND: LAW AND PRACTICE By Dr Susan Leahy and Dr Kathryn O’Sullivan, School of Law, University of Limerick Full citation: Susan Leahy and Kathryn O’Sullivan, ‘Changing Conceptions of Marriage in Ireland: Law and Practice’ (2018) 30(3) Child and Family Law Quarterly 279-300 Introduction Marriage continues to hold an important position in Irish society. While cohabitation has grown significantly as a relationship choice in recent decades or so, more often than not it is a precursor or ‘trial period’ for marriage, with many cohabiting relationships transforming into marriages after a period of time. Further, public opinion demonstrates a continued attachment to marriage as the basis for commitment within relationships. In one 2011 survey, Attitudes to Family Formation in Ireland,1 there was strong support amongst respondents for marriage as an institution and most aspired to marry at some point. Indeed, 68 per cent of the respondents in that survey agreed with the statement ‘[c]ohabiting is fine but marriage seals the deal’.2 From a legal perspective, marriage and the marital family in Ireland receive the highest levels of protection. It is the family based on marriage that is accorded elevated protection within the Irish Constitution, with non-marital or de facto families not recognised. Yet while the social and legal importance of marriage remains largely constant, the concept of marriage has undergone significant change in the past 25 years. During this period, there have been substantial changes to who can marry whom, from the introduction of divorce pursuant to the Family Law (Divorce) Act 1996 to the extension of marriage to same-sex couples by the Marriage Act 2015.

  • The Politics of Hate: Community, Societal and Global Responses
    The Politics of Hate: Community, Societal and Global Responses University of Limerick 24th – 26th May 2016 Welcome to the Second Biennial Conference of the International Network for Hate Studies We are delighted to welcome you to the second conference of our Network, the theme of which is “The Politics of Hate: Community, Societal and Global Responses.” The Conference is sure to be an exciting, stimulating and sociable occasion, and we are delighted to be hosted here in Limerick by the Hate and Hostility Research Group at the University of Limerick. The International Network for Hate Studies is a cross-jurisdictional and interdisciplinary organisation that aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge about the study of hate and hate crime. This is a growing area of scholarship which has expanded rapidly over the past few decades. Run by academics and practitioners, the Network seeks to not only promote understanding about the root causes of hate and hate crime, but to understand ways in which it can be combated globally. Hate has no borders and, with the proliferation of online sources and resources, its study needs a multi-disciplinary and international focus as well as one which examines local and jurisdiction-specific causes and responses. Our second conference, with over 80 speakers from 16 countries taking part in 30 sessions across the three days will exemplify the aims and objectives of the Network, bringing together academics, practitioners and NGO workers from across the globe in an effort to share information and exchange emerging best practices on how to tackle hate. The Network has an Advisory Board which assists in progressing its aims and objectives, as well as determining its short and longer term priorities.
