EPP-ED: 4 seats UEN: 3 seats PES: 2 seats ALDE: 1 seat GUE/NGL: 1 seat non-inscrits: 1 seat
Apparently 1 seat for Libertas. Boo! But it might yet change.
EPP-ED: 4 ALDE: 3 PES: 2 GUE/NGL: 2 IND-DEM:1
According to the beeb, Fianna Fail is moving to ALDE (just said so on the broadcast so I guess that's right).
The Beeb seems not to be counting the independent ALDE member from North West. So the correct projection should (I guess) be 4 for ALDE and 1 for GUE/NGL.
