The next speaking slot is for Sinn Féin, with a number of speakers offering. I ask Deputies to be fair to their colleagues in sticking to their individual time allocations. Deputy Ó Laoghaire is up first. He has five minutes.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 637 of 646 decisive votes (3 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.
