Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation
An Teachta O’Dowd.
Catherine Connolly
Rhetoric & votes →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.
