Same-sex<\/a> marriages in Ireland can go ahead from Monday<\/b><\/p>\n

Same-sex<\/a> couples<\/a> in Ireland can give notice that they wish to marry from Monday (16 Nov). Those who have already given notice for a civil partnership will instead be able to marry.<\/p>\n

It follows the commencement orders for the Marriage act being signed yesterday at Dublin Castle by the Minister for Justice, Frances Fitzgerald TD and Tánaiste Joan Burton TD.<\/p>\n

Both women<\/a> tweeted about the historic signings.<\/p>\n

Marriage Bill is now law, and I’ve just signed rules that make it easier for civil partners to get married. #MarRef<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/mP2WqmfJCI<\/a><\/p>\n

Ireland legalized same-sex<\/a> marriage earlier in the year following a referendum on the issue in May – the first country to hold a public vote on the issue.<\/p>\n

A total of 1,201,607 people (62.1%) voted yes and 734,300 (37.9%) voted no.<\/p>\n

News that marriages will begin on Monday was welcomed by GLEN: Gay and Lesbian Equality Network.<\/p>\n

‘Today we celebrate the final legal step in the remarkable Irish journey to equality for lesbian<\/a> and gay<\/a> people,’ said Kieran Rose, GLEN Co-Chair.<\/p>\n

‘From next week lesbian<\/a> and gay<\/a> couples<\/a> will be apply to get married and share in the same constitutional status as every other citizen.<\/p>\n

‘It is a truly joyful and historic moment, not just for lesbian<\/a> and gay<\/a> people, their families and friends, but for all Irish people. It is the end of a long legal journey that began with decriminalization in 1993, equality legislation in 1990s, Civil Partnership in 2010 and culminated in the passing of the marriage equality referendum in May.’<\/p>\n

‘There is further work to be done to ensure that the extraordinary support and goodwill of the Irish people is translated into real change in the daily lives of LGBT people. Together we can create an Ireland where this and future generations of LGBT people can achieve their full potential in school, in work and in wider society on the same basis as all others.’<\/p>\n
