Thank you, Deputy Gould.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 425 of 432 decisive votes (0 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.

Thank you Deputy.
We are gone way over time, so I would ask the Taoiseach to consider that.
Yes.
No, you are okay. Just -----
Sorry?
Always hard to do, but I will try.
The Deputy is over time.
I told the Deputy it would not work.
You should conclude, Deputy.
It was not flexibility. It was just you kept going; you could not be stopped. I call Deputy Hayes.
Thank you, Minister.
Allow the Minister of State respond, Deputy.
