I am not.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 19 of 375 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.

I am not.
I was happy to give the floor to the Minister. I find that frankly incredible given that the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation, INMO, trolley watch figures were in the 70s for each day of the week in question. Not being funny, the dogs in the street and any of the staff in UHL would tell the Minister that he is factually incorrect. It worries me that the Minister is getting information that is incorrect.
It is incredible.
I got the information.
Did you see the front page of the Limerick Post last week?
You made front-page news, Minister.
You made front-page news, Minister.
Oh my God.
I have seen the INMO figures. Those are the figures I believe.
The INMO are liars, is that it?
Is that what you are saying?
Your source is incorrect.
I will. When people in Limerick see what you said, you just wait for the outcome. You have no credibility.
Homework. Oh my God.
The Minister for Health is on the record here as saying he believes only six people were on trolleys in the week of 1 February.
Per day, that is absolutely shocking. I will get back to the point.
You do not even know what you are talking about, Minister. I have to be direct with you.
Sometimes you have to call it as it is.
Focusing again on this important motion, it is important that we see action from the Government. We need to see the framework underpinned by legislation and expanded across all health and social services. That is what the INMO has called for. I am also concerned that support staff - SIPTU is clear on this in its presentation - only get 25% of the financial supports afforded to allied health professionals. That is a real problem for the support staff - the healthcare assistants, HCAs, and the porters. Indeed, I know…
Yes, I did.
