On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 21 of 237 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.

Name them.
Hear, hear.
That is hopeful.
It is end of term.

The Minister engaged with this Seanad in relation to our Safe Access to Termination of Pregnancy Services Bill 2021, which passed all Stages of the Seanad. We always said we would work with the Minister if he brought that legislation forward. Can the Minister confirm when that legislation will come before us? We are obviously heading into the summer recess. Can he confirm that it will be brought and hopefully concluded before Christmas and the end of this year? The reason I ask is because the Minister and all colle…
I appreciate that the amendment has been ruled out of order. I will not prolong proceedings in the House.

Senator Boylan is our only speaker.
Hear, hear. That is absolutely right.
"Chicken"?
I second the amendment.
I second the amendment.
Hear, hear.
The Senator has had his time. His time is up.
Hear, hear.
There is no procedure for this.
