Polls 'demonstrate sharp decline' in support of Oireachtas referendum

The Irish Council for Civil Liberties (ICCL) has claimed that polls in two leading Sunday newspapers confirm that support for the Government's Oireachtas referendum proposals represent "a sharp decline in support" for the 30th amendment to the Constitution.

The group say support for the referendum fell by 14% in just two days last week and coincided with the launch last Friday of the official campaign for a No vote by the ICCL.
