Irish Taoiseach Leo Varadkar defends "durable relationships" term for non-marital families ahead of a referendum.

Irish Taoiseach Leo Varadkar defended the term "durable relationships" to describe non-marital families ahead of a referendum on changing the constitution to include this definition.

Varadkar clarified that durable relationships would not be the same as marriage and that the state should strive to support care, with family responsibility remaining the primary focus.
