Whether that improves the laws on guardianship rights of married and unmarried father being comparable is up in the air This does not have really have a postitive bearing on equal rights for fathers Unmarried fathers are still in the boat that they are. Even if a gay had a child from a hetro relationship, but is now married to another person (whether gay or hetro) , the relationship with the child is the same. It will help if the father was married to the mother (guardianship wise) or has little difficulty getting those rights as an unmarried dad

It's been in the news because of the extra protections it will give to children being raised by gay couples, but I think it will benefit far more heterosexual parents than gay parents. There's a briefing note here - http://www.justice.ie/en/JELR/Children%20and%20Family%20Relationships%20Bill%202013%20141113.pdf/Files/Children%20and%20Family%20Relationships%20Bill%202013%20141113.pdf.
