Take it up with your Whip, who can raise it with the other Whips at the Business Committee.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 722 of 728 decisive votes (2 abstentions excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

Take your seat, Deputy. I want to move on with the business of the day. There are important questions-----
-----on the Order Paper. Take a seat please, Deputy.
Deputy Nash, take your seat please.
Deputy, take your seat please. It is entirely within the Minister's gift-----
Deputy, do not speak over me, please. It is entirely a matter for the Minister to respond, in the way in which he deems appropriate, to the question on the Order Paper. The question that is before us is No. 106. Deputy Farrell has responded to the Minister. Do you have anything further to add, Minister?
Thank you very much. We will move on to Priority Question No. 107 in the name of Deputy Berry.
The Deputy is wasting her own time.
If the Deputy chooses to do so, that is her business. She is wasting her own time.
I invite the Minister to respond on the question on the Question Paper.
Deputy, you are wasting the House's time and your own.
You do, but on the question.
We are dealing with Question No. 108. I will read it out if necessary.
There is a question on the Question Paper. If the Deputy does not wish to delay with the question, we will move on to the next Deputy. I am sure Deputy McNamara would appreciate not being rushed at the end of his opportunity to address-----
The question is on the Question Paper before us. Everybody can read it in. The Minister can respond if the Deputy lets him do so. I have asked the Minister to respond-----
I asked the Minister to respond on the question. He has not done so. I will give him another opportunity but then I will have to move on. If the Deputy is going to debate a matter that is not before-----
If you are going to debate a matter that is not before the House at this moment, I will have to move on. Those are the rules of the House.
If the Minister wishes to respond to the question that is on the Question Paper, I am happy to facilitate that.
I thank the Minister. Deputy Farrell, it is entirely in your hands if you wish to respond to that.
I cannot change the Order Paper, Deputy. I have already said that.
