Yesterday morning, President McAleese signed the Civil Partnership and Certain Rights and Obligations of Cohabitants Act 2010 into law.
Despite the fact that the bill was far from perfect and does not address the need for absolute equality between same-sex and opposite-sex couples, it is most definitely a step in the right direction and a credit to the many campaigners who worked to realise this achievement.
Congratulations are most deserved.
