Use the last week to reach right decision

IN SEVEN days we will be given an opportunity denied to the vast majority of the European Union’s 500 million citizens.

We will be asked to vote on the Lisbon treaty.

We should make the very most of that chance and use the remaining days to inform ourselves of the issues and reach a position that reflects our principles and aspirations, a position that will optimise the benefits Ireland can expect to enjoy because of European Union membership.
