EVERY EVENING,TheJournal.ie brings you the latest news and campaign moves, squabbles and – hopefully – useful tidbits of information as we face into the 31 May Fiscal Compact referendum.

(If you just want to make up your mind by yourself, you can read TheJournal.ie’s layman’s guide to the treaty).

WHAT’S NEW?

• Enda Kenny will make a televised address to the nation this Sunday night. The broadcast will come the day after Gerry Adams’s speech at the Sinn Féin ard fheis on Saturday evening.
• TDs and Senators will be having themselves a nice little holiday next week as the Dáil takes a five-day recess ahead of the referendum vote. Those of them that aren’t frantically campaigning one way or the other, of course.
• Fine Gael junior minister Lucinda Creighton has said that Ireland may not be able to tap the international financial markets for funding next year, in which case we would need to access the EU’s new bailout fund, RTÉ reports.
• In case you missed it: UCC expert Jane Suiter gave us the rundown on the winners – and losers – of the referendum campaign so far.
• Are you confused by all this talk of eurobonds? We were too, until we read this handy run-down of all you need to know.
