Irish government confirms date for referendums on family and care

The speaker announces two referendums to amend the Constitution based on recommendations from the Citizens Assembly on Gender Equality. Proposed changes include recognizing families beyond marriage and removing outdated references to women's roles. A proposal to explicitly mention gender equality was dropped due to potential legal issues. The referendums aim to reflect modern, inclusive values. The campaign will focus on respectful dialogue and combating misinformation, with the vote scheduled for International Women's Day 2024.
