Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection

I understand the Deputy is referring to section 21 of the Civil Registration (Amendment) Act 2004. The provisions relate to Civil Partnerships. These and other provisions relating to Civil Partnerships were repealed by the Marriage Act 2015 and no longer appear in the Statute.

I hope this clarifies this matter for the Deputy.
