‹ An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Children and Family Relationships Act
Summary
Anne Rabbitte asks why Parts 2 and 3 of the Children and Family Relationships Act 2015 have not commenced. The Taoiseach says assisted human reproduction legislation likely has to be passed first and promises a written reply.
Will the Taoiseach outline the reason for the delay in the commencement of Parts 2 and 3 of the Children and Family Relationships Act 2015? When does he expect these Parts to be commenced?
Comment on this
I will have to double-check with the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs, Deputy Zappone, but I think that before they can be commenced, the legislation on assisted human reproduction has to be passed, which could be some time away. However, I will double-check and ensure the Deputy receives a written reply.
