"Madam President, I would like to support Mr Martin’s proposal, for the situation is one of great urgency. The Foreign Ministers are, of course, meeting today and tomorrow in Luxembourg and will probably decide to press ahead with the ratifications as if there had been no referendum, and the Treaty is now set up in such a way that 15 signatures are required in order to amend it. Consequently, we should take the initiative to ensure that there is at least pause for thought and that we do not just ride roughshod over the Irish referendum. The Irish referendum should provide everyone with reason for reflection, bearing in mind the substantial resources employed on the ‘yes’ side compared with the few employed on the ‘no’ side."@en1
