Convention on the Future of Europe: Statements.

 

On the broader front, I commend what our representatives have done on our behalf and I wish them well. The Government, and all of us, have a responsibility to ensure the debate is carried as widely as possible to the people of Ireland, and that there is the widest degree of understanding of the issues. We should also use the time and the instruments, including this Chamber, in order to do that. It is important to keep the momentum going, to ensure that – unlike what happened in the past – when the Irish people are asked to make a decision on this issue, it is an informed decision based on a good debate.
