Predsednik Irske Meri Mekalis je danas potpisala Zakona o civilnom partnerstvu koji su prosle nedelje usvojili Parlament i Senat i koji stupa na snagu u januaru 2011.
What a great way to start 2011!
Civil Partnership Bill signed into law
The Civil Partnership Bill, which provides legal recognition for same-sex couples in Ireland for the first time, has today been signed into law.
The Bill was signed into law by President Mary McAleese at Áras an Uachtaráin this morning.
The first civil registrations for same-sex couples are likely to take place next January.
The Bill was approved by the Seanad by 48 votes to 4 at 6.30pm on Friday July 9th, having completed its passage though the Dáil the previous week.
It extends marriage-like benefits to gay and lesbian couples in the areas of property, social welfare, succession, maintenance, pensions and tax.
