Tánaiste to reply.
John McGuinness
Rhetoric & votes →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.
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 questions on policy or legislation. I join with the party leaders and others in extending our thanks to all of the staff here in Leinster House for the work they do for us in keeping the campus right and keeping all of us safe. I include the Garda in that. I wish everyone well in their work over the next number of weeks.

Before calling Deputy Stanley, I acknowledge the visitors in the Public Gallery. They are all very welcome. It is good to see so many here. I also acknowledge the presence of Councillor Pat Fitzpatrick, former president of the AILG, who is attending with family and friends. Indeed, some have come from America. They are all very welcome.
