"I am voting for Amendment 26, which argues that Ireland should retain the 13 seats it currently has. Under the Nice Treaty, Ireland was allocated 12 seats; however, since the Nice Treaty, Ireland’s population has increased by 12%. It is the fastest-growing population in the EU, in terms of national increase and overall growth. This report gives Ireland an allocation of 12 seats – three less than the 15 that Ireland had for the 1999-2004 term, which means we will lose 20% of our quota from 2004."@en1
