This recommendation was sent to the Oireachtas as part of the SecondReport of the Convention on the Constitution.8 The Government accepted therecommendation on the need to amend Article 41.2, noting that a reference tocarers in the Constitution required further reflection and consultation. It set upa Task Force to consider an appropriate response which reported in October20169, setting out three broad options:
1) to replace Article 41.2 with a provision which recognises the work of carersin the home, and a commitment to endeavour to support this work;
2) to extend the commitment to ‘endeavour to support’ carers beyond thehome, through a new Article 45.4.310 which would recognise care in thebroader community, as well as in the home;
or3) to repeal Article 41.2 altogether (this approach was not recommended bythe Task Force).
Anyone else find it mad that the text of the amendment was not included on the voting cards? So you are just handed two separate cards, one for the 39th Amendment, and one for the 40th amendment- so unless you know which is which you don't actually know what you are voting for. Absolutely crazy

I heard some whispers of ‘this is all a plot to bring more baby eating Muslims into the country’ from a uninformed source.A great day for the Iona Institue.
One gobshite I know was saying this is a victory against the woke degenerate brigade. So there probably was a fair bit of influence there.I heard some whispers of ‘this is all a plot to bring more baby eating Muslims into the country’ from a uninformed source.
Was there much influence from that quarter do people think/know?
Actually I found reference to it… apparently the rumour was that durable relationships could include polygamous marriages, and allow more family members to be brought into the country. By the standards of right wing theories that’s less crazy than I expected…One gobshite I know was saying this is a victory against the woke degenerate brigade. So there probably was a fair bit of influence there.
