Process
The Department of the Taoiseach prepares a loose-leaf consolidated text. The Taoiseach, Chief Justice, and President initial each page and sign (?and presumably seal) the whole (on the first or last page?). The President signs last; in 2019 his signature was at a ceremony in Áras an Uachtaráin on 4 November in the presence of the Taoiseach and Chief Justice, and with the five previous enrolled versions on display. The Department of the Taoiseach retained custody of the signed text until the completion of preparations for its formal enrolment, which occurred at the Four Courts on 13 November when the Secretary General of the Department of the Taoiseach formally handed it over to the Registrar of the Supreme Court in the presence of the Chief Justice.
