Civil Unions Bill 2006: First Stage.

Mr. Stagg

I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to provide for the recognition and registration of civil unions, and to provide for related matters.

An Ceann Comhairle

Is the Bill opposed?

Minister of State at the Department of the Taoiseach (Mr. Kitt)

No.

Question put and agreed to.

An Ceann Comhairle

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

Mr. Stagg

I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

Question put and agreed to.
