INTERFERENCE BY FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS IN THE EU REFERENDUM

That this House recognises the strength of feeling on many sides that will be expressed in the upcoming referendum on EU membership; asserts that the decision is one for the people of the UK, not for foreign governments; deprecates outside interference in our national debate; condemns fearmongering about the consequences of the British public's free vote; specifically rejects the statement of the Irish Taoiseach that if the people of the UK decide to leave the EU this could damage the Northern Ireland peace process; and calls for a respectful debate so that the public can make an informed decision on this very important matter.
