Written Answers. - Divorce Referendum Funding.
The Government has no proposals to fund groups supporting or opposing the referendum proposal on divorce. It is, however, providing a facility for those groups, by way of the ad hoc commission on the referendum, to make their case for and against divorce. The establishment of that commission has been the responsibility of the Minister for the Environment. The cost, when it arises, will be met from the Exchequer and it will not fall to be determined as a percentage of the cost of the Government's information programme on the referendum.
