Organisations call for wording on upcoming referendum to be published immediately 

Group asked for 'urgent clarification' on when the referendum wording would be published, stating it was 'critical' to allow the public sufficient time to have a conversation on the issue prior to voting

A number of organisations have signed an open letter to the Taoiseach, seeking immediate action ahead of the family, care and gender equality referendum, which presents a “unique opportunity” to change the “restrictive” language observed in the Irish Constitution.

The groups have asked that the wording people will be asked to vote on in the November referendum is published as soon as possible, having already passed the agreed timeline of mid-May.
