	Ireland People Welcome Volunteers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Ireland's first inhabitants were Mesolithic (middle stone age) peoples who traveled to Ireland over land bridges from Britain and northern Europe.
		In Ireland, the Celts prospered, largely because the island was linguistically untouched for many centuries, and was isloated by the sea, making it inconvenient and inaccessible to Roman invaders.
		Ireland's economic growth has been over twice the EU average, inflation has fallen to one of the lowest rates in the EU, and employment in the private non-agricultural sector had shown an annual average growth of about 2.5 percent.

	Livable Ireland
		We believe in an open functional democracy governed by the majority whilst protecting the minority, by capable individuals who act in the interests of the country and not themselves with joined up thinking and common sense.
		Livable Ireland has taken its name from our vision of creating an Ireland which is consistently ranked in the top three ranked nations with the highest quality of life worldwide.
		Ireland is ideally positioned to become a leader in this space for the rest of the world to follow.

		Britain and Ireland, as the two countries directly involved, played a variety of roles at different times, ranging from mediation to acting as a proxy for the different parties in Northern Ireland.
		On occasion, the Irish government would also be present in Downing Street… The round table meetings tended to be open sessions for restating opening positions on the subject and were undermined by a sense that the “real business” was being conducted at Downing Street with a much narrower range of participants.

		The Government has taken the view that it is essential to proceed in this matter with the goodwill and co-operation of the representative bodies on both sides of industry which have consistently demonstrated their concern for the social responsibilities of industry as well as for the economic well-being of Northern Ireland.
		It remains the view of the United Kingdom Government that it is for the people of Northern Ireland to decide what should be their relationship to the United Kingdom and to the Republic of Ireland; and that it should not be impossible to devise measures which will meet the best interests of all three.
