Critical Commentary on National Forum on Europe's Summary Guide to the Treaty of Lisbon![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This commentary is offered to the public by organisations that form part of the Special Observer Pillar of the National Forum on Europe. This is an examination of the Summary that was sent out to many households; it is presented here with additional in-text commentary also from the public domain, clarifying, questioning, and criticising important aspects of the summary guide. Failure to provide a legal assessment of the constitutional significance of the Treaty is a fundamental omission from this "Summary Guide". It prevents readers of the Guide from appreciating the profound constitutional change which the Lisbon Treaty would bring about in the EU, its Member States and in the political and legal status of the 500 million citizens of the post-Lisbon European Union. |
