  5. ^ Given that Sinn Féin members of Parliament (MPs) practise abstentionism and do not take their seats, while the Speaker and deputies do not vote, the number of MPs needed for a majority is in practice slightly lower.[11] Sinn Féin won seven seats, and including the speaker and their three deputy speakers, meaning a practical majority requires 321 seats.
