There is no such category as naturalisation based on marriage to an EU national. If a standard 5 year reckonable residence applicant happens to be married to an EU national, this fact is immaterial.

many people who applied in 2009 and 2010 are still waiting. I also know a few that are still waiting longer than that. It's just that when the minister decided to speed up the processing, he did not start from the older files in the queue, but from the fresh applications coming in....
but hopwfully now he will instruct his staff to concentrate on clearing the backlog as per his letter issued to older applicants.
and just to remind you, there are only several categories for naturalisation:
1. based on marriage to irish citizen
2. based on 5 years reckonable residence (that includes people on work permits, married to EU nationals, parents of IBC, humanitarian leave to remain, etc)
3. minors
and maybe some other ones like irish association and refugees...
