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.

We are moving on to the other questions. I do not see the Deputies. If I am missing somebody, he or she can shout at me. Moving back to Deputy Donnelly, the Deputy is next with Question No. 7.
Which Minister is responding? The Minister, Deputy Humphreys?
It is Question No. 7 on the Order Paper on multi-annual funding of community projects.
The Minister of State will have to answer Question No. 7 because Question No. 7 is in Deputy Paul Donnelly's name. Has the Deputy got it in front of him?
Deputy Paul Donnelly has asked about multi-annual funding of community projects.
The next question is in the name of Deputy Claire Kerrane.
It is to ask when SICAP funding will be increased.
The one before that was the multi-annual funding of community projects. That is the question that was answered. We are moving onto Question No. 8 in the name of Deputy Claire Kerrane that you are taking.
That is the question we are on. It has been answered.
We will not go through it again, unless you want to.
I believe Deputy McHugh also wanted to speak on this issue.

I thank the Minister of State. Members can read the rest of the reply. We will move on to the next Topical Issue matter.
There are five Deputies to speak on this Topical Issue debate. I am going to start with the names as they appear here. Deputy Calleary has one minute.
I am allowing leeway and have increased the time to a minute because there are so many Deputies speaking.
As I have allowed Deputy Calleary one minute, I will allow each of the other Deputies a minute as well.
I thank the Minister of State for his co-operation.
We are going to stick to times because there is a list. It is one minute for the question and one minute for the Minister of State. I know it is difficult.
That is the end of Priority Questions.
