EDITOR, The Tribune.

We are being told that if question #4 of the referendum passes the word “sex” will be added to Article 26 of the Constitution and that this will not permit same sex marriages because the Marriage Act only permits marriage between a man and a woman.

The Constitution states that it is the supreme law of the land and that any law inconsistent with it is void.

Does it follow then that if the constitution is amended as question #4 seeks to do that provision in the Marriage Act becomes void because it is inconsistent with the constitution?
