lpv:spoken text	"I did not vote on this report as Ireland chose not to exercise its option to take part in the adoption and application of the proposed regulation and has not played an active role in negotiations at Council level. Ireland was not in favour of extending jurisdiction to Irish courts to grant a divorce to an EU national based on a substantially different law of the state where he/she came from. This, if it had been implemented, would allow EU nationals resident in Ireland to obtain a divorce in Irish courts on substantially different and less onerous grounds than that provided for in our constitution as allowed by the referendum on divorce in 1995. Given that Ireland is not part of the process in adopting and applying this regulation, I chose not to vote on this report."@en1
