Clarification needed on extra MEP seat



The expected decision not to include the proposed extra MEP seat for Ireland has been described as ridiculous.

That’s the view of Fine Gael Midlands North West MEP Colm Markey, who spoke out on the issue ahead of the publication of the Electoral Commission’s report tomorrow.

It’s expected the report will be based on the existing 13-seat allocation, rather than the proposed new allocation of 14 seats.

Speaking to Ocean FM News, Mr Markey said that clarification is needed sooner rather than later, especially with an election just around the corner.
