REFERENDA 22 MAY 1998

Statement by The Most Revd Dr Robin Eames, Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland

The Church of Ireland recognises the courage and dedication of all involved in the political dialogue which has led to this momentous and vital point in our history and the prime importance for all the people of Ireland of the forthcoming Referenda.

 The Standing Committee urges all members of the Church of Ireland, in exercising their democratic right, to record their opinion for the common good according to individual conscience. It also emphasises the importance of prayerful consideration of the questions to be asked, on the part of all members of the Church of Ireland.
