lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, like you I welcome the final referendum which took place in Latvia this weekend and resulted in a strong 'yes' vote for joining the European Union. I look forward to seeing full ratification by all 10 accession countries. One issue raised is the need to ensure that the citizens of all 25 states who are resident in Member States other than their own are entitled to vote. Would the President's office undertake a review of the 25 Member States to see which arrangements are in place allowing these European citizens to vote in states which are not their own? It is important that they are not only entitled but also encouraged to do so."@en¹
