The Irish MEPs voted in the following way:
Yes:
ALDE: Harkin
PPE-DE: Burke, Doyle, Higgins, McGuinneas, Mitchel
PES: De Rossa
UEN: Aylward, Crowley, O'Neactain, Ryan

No:
GUE/NGL: McDonald
IND/DEM: Sinnott

Abtenstions:
None

So the majority of Irish MEPs are in favour of the Treaty. I wonder if the referendum reuslts will reflect this.
