Taoiseach Enda Kenny will hold talks with European counterparts today on proposals for a new treaty to tighten budgetary rules.
The informal meeting of the European Council in Brussels will also focus on economic growth and jobs.
The Government said it is hoped the summit meeting will help secure agreement on the final text of the Intergovernmental Treaty to try to bring stability to the eurozone.
The Attorney General will then have to advise if the measure needs to be voted on in a referendum here.
Leaders will also hold talks on immediate action needed to tackle youth unemployment, the single market and small and medium enterprises.
