On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 22 of 449 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.

I thank the Deputy, but we are way over time.
I understand, but please no more clapping. Thank you.
In relation to Deputy Danny Healy-Rae calling for peace, it is good that we all stand together and call for peace, but we need actions. One of the most specific actions that we could take is to inspect the aeroplanes in Shannon, which we are not doing. It beggars belief that we are taking on trust what President Biden is telling us.

Thank you. That concludes Leader's Questions.
Please resume your seat Deputy.
