It is the whole grouping.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 66 of 66 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.

It is the whole grouping.
I am only telling the Senator. The grouping is quite extensive. I will not read all of them-----
I know but while it is allowed on Committee Stage, unfortunately on Report Stage-----
The rules are the rules. The rules are that a Senator will contribute once on Report Stage on the entire grouping.
Pardon?
She is the proposer of the amendment.
No, you did not.
You did not move it yet. We have not reached it. It will already have been discussed when we get to it. To be of assistance, we are discussing amendment No. 46 but the grouping, which was agreed in the last debate, is all these amendments, including your amendment. We will get to it, but the discussion is now and you speak once on Report Stage.
No, you are entitled to make your point for as long as you wish in your contribution on Report Stage, but you can only do it once.
That is correct.
They are the rules. They have always been the rules. I am only implementing the rules.
Thank you, Senator.
Members have made their contributions.
It is entirely up to the Minister, but there is nothing further from him. Is the Senator pressing amendment No. 46?
Amendments Nos. 52 to 55, inclusive, are related and may be discussed together. Is that agreed? Agreed.
Is that agreed? Agreed.
Is that agreed? Agreed.
I welcome Representative Mark McBride and his wife, Jennifer, from the great state of Oklahoma, to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery. I thank them for coming to Leinster House. One Senator neglected to vote but the record has been amended to reflect the fact that said Senator, in fact, intended to vote.
Before we commence, I remind Senators that a Senator may speak only once on Report Stage, except for the proposer of an amendment, who may reply to the discussion on the amendment. On Report Stage, each non-Government amendment must be seconded. Amendment No. 1 is in the name of Senators Gavan and Boylan and arises out of committee proceedings. Amendments Nos. 1 to 4, inclusive, are related and may be discussed together, by agreement. Is that agreed? Agreed.
Amendments Nos. 5 and 6 are related and may be discussed together by agreement. Is that agreed? Agreed.
