-----he is going to make it possible that those 15,000 children, who wait and wait, will get their assessments of need and consequently the services and supports to which they are entitled.
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.

No, no.
Yes.
You need an assessment of need before you decide on a child's therapist.
Or combine with the law.
Similarly, under Standing Order 35(3), I wish to move an amendment to the Order of Business-----
-----to ensure that at the end of Thursday's business we have statements on the Government's deal with Michael Lowry and that the Taoiseach and Tánaiste make statements and take questions and give full-----
-----clarity and transparency. What is the relationship with Cabinet?
What is this rota of Ministers? What deal was struck?

Children are on the brink of starvation in Gaza as a consequence of Israel's blocking of humanitarian aid. It is blocking food, water and medicines. More than 500 people have been slaughtered in Gaza in recent days alone. What people might not know is that the Irish Government has made Ireland complicit in funding this genocide. The Irish Central Bank oversees the sale of Israeli war bonds. These are directly used to fund the genocide in Palestine. Tomorrow, Deputy Pearse Doherty and I will introduce legislation wh…
I move: That Dáil Éireann: notes that: — children are legally entitled to an assessment of their health and education needs under the Disability Act 2005, and that the assessment must take place within six months; and — the law is being broken with respect to the 15,296 children whose Assessment of Need is overdue, and with just 4,162 assessments conducted last year the number of children being failed is rising; and calls on the Government to: — comply with its legal obligations to provide assessments within six mo…

Yes, inflation has tamed but the cost-of-living crisis has not gone away. For the life of me, I cannot understand why the Taoiseach cannot accept people's experiences as bona fide. They …
What the Taoiseach said is that he is doing nothing.
The Government cut the per capita rate of the scheme.
