Lizbonska pogodba v ničemer in za nobeno državo članico ne spreminja obsega ali uveljavljanja pristojnosti Evropske unije v zvezi z obdavčitvijo. Dejavnosti Unije na mednarodnem prizorišču temeljijo na načelih demokracije, pravne države, univerzalnosti in nedeljivosti človekovih pravic in temeljnih svoboščin, spoštovanju človekovega dostojanstva, načelih enakosti in solidarnosti ter na spoštovanju načel Ustanovne listine Združenih narodov in mednarodnega prava. Skupna varnostna in obrambna politika Unije je sestavni del skupne zunanje in varnostne politike ter Uniji zagotavlja operativne zmogljivosti za misije zunaj njenih meja za ohranjanje miru, preprečevanje konfliktov in krepitev mednarodne varnosti v skladu z načeli Ustanovne listine Združenih narodov. Ne posega v varnostno in obrambno politiko držav članic, vključno z Irsko, niti v obveznosti držav članic. Lizbonska pogodba ne vpliva na irsko tradicionalno politiko vojaške nevtralnosti niti vanjo ne posega. Države članice, vključno z Irsko, bodo v duhu solidarnosti in brez poseganja v tradicionalno politiko vojaške nevtralnosti določile vrsto pomoči ali podpore posamezni državi članici, na katero je izvršen teroristični napad ali je žrtev oboroženega napada na njeno ozemlje. Vsako odločitev o prehodu na skupno obrambo bo moral soglasno sprejeti Evropski svet. Države članice, vključno z Irsko, se bodo v skladu z določbami Lizbonske pogodbe in svojimi zadevnimi ustavnimi pravili odločile, ali bodo sprejele skupno obrambo ali ne. Ta naslov v ničemer ne vpliva na stališče ali politiko katere koli druge države članice o varnosti in obrambi niti v to stališče ali politiko ne posega. Prav tako se vsaka država članica v skladu z določbami Lizbonske pogodbe in svojimi notranjepravnimi zahtevami sama odloči, ali bo sodelovala v stalnem strukturnem sodelovanju ali Evropski obrambni agenciji. Lizbonska pogodba ne predvideva ustanovitve evropske vojske ali nabora za kakršno koli vojaško formacijo. Ravno tako ne vpliva na pravico Irske ali katere koli druge države članice, da določi naravo in obseg svoje obrambe ter sredstev, ki jih nameni za varnost, in naravo svojih obrambnih zmogljivosti. Irska oziroma vsaka država članica bo v skladu s svojimi notranjepravnimi zahtevami sama odločila, ali bo sodelovala v kateri koli vojaški operaciji. Protokol bo na voljo za podpis visokim pogodbenicam do 30. junija 2012.

Nothing in the Treaty of Lisbon makes any change of any kind, for any Member State, to the extent or operation of the competence of the European Union in relation to taxation. The Union's action on the international scene is guided by the principles of democracy, the rule of law, the universality and indivisibility of human rights and fundamental freedoms, respect for human dignity, the principles of equality and solidarity, and respect for the principles of the United Nations Charter and international law. The Union's common security and defence policy is an integral part of the common foreign and security policy and provides the Union with an operational capacity to undertake missions outside the Union for peace-keeping, conflict prevention and strengthening international security in accordance with the principles of the United Nations Charter. It does not prejudice the security and defence policy of each Member State, including Ireland, or the obligations of any Member State. The Treaty of Lisbon does not affect or prejudice Ireland's traditional policy of military neutrality. It will be for Member States – including Ireland, acting in a spirit of solidarity and without prejudice to its traditional policy of military neutrality – to determine the nature of aid or assistance to be provided to a Member State which is the object of a terrorist attack or the victim of armed aggression on its territory. Any decision to move to a common defence will require a unanimous decision of the European Council. It would be a matter for the Member States, including Ireland, to decide, in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty of Lisbon and with their respective constitutional requirements, whether or not to adopt a common defence. Nothing in this Title affects or prejudices the position or policy of any other Member State on security and defence. It is also a matter for each Member State to decide, in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty of Lisbon and any domestic legal requirements, whether to participate in permanent structured cooperation or the European Defence Agency. The Treaty of Lisbon does not provide for the creation of a European army or for conscription to any military formation. It does not affect the right of Ireland or any other Member State to determine the nature and volume of its defence and security expenditure and the nature of its defence capabilities. It will be a matter for Ireland or any other Member State, to decide, in accordance with any domestic legal requirements, whether or not to participate in any military operation.
