The infamous Denton's report which it was hoped would become "a powerful tool for activists" appears to have been followed once again in focusing on the "woman-in-the-home" clause - whilst casually slipping in an innocent looking but more contentious aim.
irishmirror.ie/news/irish-new… The much maligned 1937 "women-in-the-home" clause includes a guarantee to women. The late Mr Justice Brian Walsh was surprised that it had never been tested.

Did @NWCI ever advocate for it be used to support women?

"The next general election, expected to be held in two years’ time, will see the gender quota for female candidates increased to 40 per cent, with political parties facing a 50 per cent cut to their state funding if they fail to meet the quota."

"The appointment of a consultant psychiatrist to manage the service is still required after being advertised twice without success."

How does legislation get changed yet the public know nothing about it?

Perhaps through EU legislation which well resourced lobbyists manage to get submissions in to in good time?

Here's one for which the Public Consultation closes tonight at 11 pm ec.europa.eu/info/law/bette… 1/8 Transgender Europe and ILGA made submissions to the "Violence against women and domestic violence – fitness check of EU legislation" at the roadmap stage which closed in August.

Most of the 90 submissions are from Italy (64%) and appear to have a similar theme. 2/8

Letter was compiled by sixth-formers at the school.

gcn.ie/motion-include… Why is the chairperson of TENI on the board of the National Womens Council of Ireland? 2/8 teni.ie/the-board/

Do trans activists not already have their own organisation to represent their interests?
