The Constitutional Convention has made a number of pivotal decisions. In this context, and regarding the referendum on marriage equality, has the Cabinet considered the report of the Constitutional Convention, will it report to the House and will we see a referendum date set sometime this term?

The Government has agreed a formula for dealing with the reports from the Constitutional Convention, that we will consider each report as it comes before us and have given an undertaking to make a decision on our response to the report within four months. We have complied with that timetable to date and we intend to comply with it on each of the succeeding reports. The Constitutional Convention has made a recommendation on marriage equality. The report has not yet been presented but when it is the Cabinet will address it within the timetable.
