Gay marriage forum debate ‘not flawed’

The chairman of the Constitutional Convention has rejected claims that procedures during a debate on same sex marriage at the forum over the weekend were flawed.

Tom Arnold said he was happy with standards of presentations and the forum’s process after 79% of attendees voted in favour of same-sex marriage in Ireland.

Mr Arnold’s comments came after Independent senator Ronan Mullen alleged the convention had been a “flawed process”.
