Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements

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

That concludes Taoiseach's Questions. We will now move to Second Stage of the Criminal Justice (International Cooperation on Electronic Evidence and Other Matters) Bill 2026, a Government Bill sponsored by the Minister for justice. The Taoiseach is using his phone.

Tourism: Statements
I want to make a pitch for my own constituency of Carlow-Kilkenny. We cannot be complacent about our success or rest on our laurels.
