On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 22 of 456 decisive votes (4 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 was needed five years ago, or ten years ago.
I have no tolerance for waffle.
There are unruly elements in this Chamber. Most of them are Sinn Féiners but how and ever. I return to the issue of the Rotunda Hospital, which is the busiest maternity hospital in the country. The refusal of permission for the critical care unit is undoubtedly a blow but it should be remembered that it is just the latest in a series of setbacks for the hospital. The hospital has for a long time been seeking investment and development but each and every time it has been put through the wringer by a government that …
Yes, correct.
It is not completely untrue.
I know that hospital well.
No, no, no.
Yes, and I am raising it now.
No, you did not.
I have asked about colocation.
A Leas-Cheann Comhairle, I asked about colocation, not about the critical care unit. I would like an answer, please.
I would like an answer from the Taoiseach, please.
No, he has not.
He has not answered.
I echo the Ceann Comhairle's sentiments entirely. I also welcome to the Public Gallery the delegation from Donegal who are here today to save the flights accommodating cancer patients from the county. I understand they have gathered some 15,000 signatures for their petition over recent days. It is a disgrace that they have to come here to fight that fight but I commend them on their efforts and wish them every success. It is a decision that needs to be reversed. The Government is set to throw renters to the wolves.…
Oh you have made a decision. There is no question there.
Just to explain to the Taoiseach, who clearly cannot grasp this very simple concept, there is no security of tenure if you cannot afford the rent.
