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.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

Tá an dream seo ag streachailt ar an talamh le breis agus seacht mbliana. De bharr na hoibre atá á ndéanamh acu, i dteannta le Teachtaí Dála, tá dul chun cinn déanta. Progress has been made but this issue has been going on for more than seven years. The local group has kept up its campaign and kept the pressure on us. Approximately one year ago, as my colleagues said, we raised this matter in the House and progress was made on the provision of extra staff, an additional ambulance and a rapid reaction team.

I thank the Minister.
I call Sinn Féin, which has a 15-minute slot, so that there is no misunderstanding.
Deputies, please.
The time is up.
Thank you, Deputy. The time is up.
