Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

We will certainly examine the Bill. Sometimes there is also the law of unintended consequences when it comes to these things so we will have to examine it carefully but we will do so with an open mind. I firmly support an amendment to our Constitution to modernise the definition of family which is more reflective of the world we live in than was the case in 1937 but there are many referendums on the go at the moment. It is an important one, however, and one I would like to bring forward.
