(...) Supporting sustainable development in the Developing world is one of my key priorities. The EU is the world´s biggest donor of overseas development aid, but we must ensure that this aid is reaching those that need it most. As an MEP I have campaigned for transparency and effectiveness in aid policy, and with six colleagues from across the political spectrum in the European Parliament initiated a petition to fight corruption, especially in EU relations with third countries ( www.stopcorruption.eu ).

The Post Office plays a vital role in our community in terms of jobs and services it provides which must be protected. What steps will you take to ensure that this is the case?
Can we depend on you to be a guardian of the public interest and vital public services?
Do you think taxpayers should be forced to fund An Post in the future when it is run without state aid now?
If not how do you propose to fund the universal service obligation which guarantees that every citizen enjoys a proper postal service with collection and delivery five times a week with a single price to all destinations?

Issue EU defence

By:

How do you feel about the fact that our tax payers money will be spent on military equipment and hardware? This amount will be dictated to us by the EDA European Defence Agency. When we don´t have enough money for hospitals or education for our children. Your party want a yes vote for lisbon. By voting yes you are voting for the EDA. .. The EDA is a central part of the Lisbon treaty...
Hospitals NOT Helicopters I say.

Dear ,

Thank you very much for your query. Participation in the Agency imposes no obligations on Ireland in relation to increased expenditure of defence or on the development or enhancement of DefenceForce capabilities. All decisions regarding the nature and scale of resources invested in defence and the nature of defence capabilities are entirely a matter for each individual Member State of the Union. In addition, there is no obligation or commitment as a participating member State to participate in any particular project undertaken by the Agency. Any decision to participate in any particular project is a matter for each Member State to decide in accordance with its national decision making procedures.

The specific provision in the Lisbon Treaty pertaining to the Agency confirms the existing arrangements regarding the establishment and management of the Agency. The provisions in the Treaty, if implemented, will not alter the sovereign right of Ireland, as of each other Member State, to decide whether to participate in any particular activity or project. Moreover, all decisions in relation to expenditure on defence or the development of defence capabilities will continue to remain exclusively within the domain of the national decision making procedures of each member state.

Yours sincerely,
Eoin Ryan
