(Ireland) - The Gay and Lesbian Equality Network (GLEN) have called on all parties to support Labour’s Civil Union Bill, which will be re-introduced to the Dáil tonight. If passed, the Civil Union Bill will extend the same benefits and legal obligations of marriage to same-sex couples. The Bill was postponed for six months by the last Government and was supported by all other parties including the Greens, who are now in government. The new Government has committed to enacting civil partnership legislation at the earliest opportunity.
