On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 55 of 1,141 decisive votes (16 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.

Party over time

This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

Finance Bill 2025: Report and Final Stages

Ar dtús guím ádh mór ar an Tánaiste ina phost nua. Dúirt an Teachta Ó Snodaigh an fhírinne gur post an-tábhachtach é. I am speaking in support of Deputy Ó Snodaigh's amendment. I, Deputy Ó Snodaigh and a number of other Deputies, including Deputy Boyd Barrett, have spoken over many years about section 481. As positive as it has been in providing tax credits and ensuring we have a thriving film industry, there are particular issues with workers' rights and copyright. We believe we need to look after those who work t…

Finance Bill 2025: Report and Final Stages

In fairness, Deputy Ó Snodaigh has synopsised well. A designated activity company is set up. It might be the same producer. Those involved may employ the same people for a number of years but they are seen as the employer and then they suddenly disappear. Therefore they cannot be held to account. I have outlined the particular issue is if somebody does try to raise a head of steam on issues that might pertain to the ratio or the work practices. We want to make sure we have decent work practices and that we ensure t…

Is the Minister of State going to give clarity or are we just moving on?

The Deputies asked the Minister of State a question; the Minister of State has given her answer. If there are issues and grievances in relation to that, they will have to be brought up at another date and in the correct setting.
