Lisbon Treaty Referendum 2009

Will there be a sceond referendum on the Lisbon Treaty in 2009? Many people think that there will. Following Ireland's no in the Lisbon Treaty referendum, which was delivered in a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty in June 2008. But slowly, the EU seems to be whittling down its options and these may include asking the Irish people to vote for a second time on the Lisbon Treaty, in 2009.

After meeting in Luxembourg, EU foreign ministers initially agreed to back away from talk of a "two-speed Europe", shorthand for a more integrated group of core countries surrounded by other EU members not yet ready to take the full plunge by ratifying the Lisbon Treaty. However, more recently, many in Europe have indicated that Ireland must vote again in another referendum on the Lisbon Treaty in 2009.

Both Germany and France had raised the possibility that Ireland's rejection of the Lisbon treaty (which was designed to streamline decision-making processes in the EU, increase the bloc's foreign policy unity, and increase the lawmaking powers of the European Parliament) could lead to Ireland being left out of a more unified EU - until Ireland ratifies the Lisbon Treaty.

Europe's leaders now seem intent on keeping the Lisbon Treaty ratification process on track. Furthermore, many have raised the possibility that additional guarantees could be added to the Lisbon treaty to satisfy skeptics in Ireland while at the same time justifying a re-vote in another referendum on the Lisbon Treaty in 2009.
